Message:: [QUOTE="MatrixMP-9, post: 3595433, member: 93422"]Agreed! I can look up certain years of pennies on Wexlers and there are dozens of DDs for a specific year. Some of them are so incredibly difficult to even see in their photos its crazy. I'd have to bet the vast majority of people that frequent this site could look at some of those lesser class DDs and completely miss it. This is such a difficult hobby looking for real DDs part time. The proof is in how many are posted here and how many are not DDs. What is it, 1 in 100 posts might be a legitimate example? And some posters are so confident they proclaim that without question they have an example even when the pros here say probably not. The odds are against you in this "sport" and you have better chances of getting struck by lightning 3 times in one day and hitting the lottery twice then actually finding some of these rarities...yet there is no less than once a week or so that someone states they are sure they have it! I think thats the appeal to some...the odds are not in your favor but just maybe....just maybe , you find something really cool. Its a nice feeling to feel like youve "won" something, its human nature to want to win and to the part time novice, you can win this game with zero effort just looking at your change after buying a slurpee. Well, at least you think so![/QUOTE]
