<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Oldhoopster, post: 3332993, member: 84179&quot;][USER=101042]@Maysbabe[/USER] </p><p>You can think of the ultra high grade coins like an old Corvette with 25 miles on the odometer that has been perfectly maintained and stored.&nbsp; Finding an ultra high grade coin in circulation is similar to finding the old Corvette on Craigslist, or a local used car lot.&nbsp; It’s very unlikely.</p><p><br /></p><p>In addition, you need to be experienced in grading these coins.&nbsp; Just because it looks nice doesn’t mean it’s worth a lot (most used cars look nice on the lot).&nbsp; Unfortunately, the click bait you tube videos never tell you those details.&nbsp; They just want you to click away on the videos.&nbsp; If they told you an accurate story, you would understand how difficult it is to find these coins and you wouldn’t keep clicking on their sites. These videos are a scourge on the hobby and do nothing to educate new collectors.&nbsp; CT gets numerous posts like yours from people thinking they hit the jackpot.&nbsp; In reality, finding a valuable coin in circulation is a rare occurrence, even if you have years of experience in the hobby.&nbsp; As with any vocation or hobby, it takes a lot of time, effort, and practice to become proficient.&nbsp; If you’re interested in “getting rich quick”, it isn’t going to happen, but if you’re interested in learning about numismatics, CT is a good place to hang out.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
