[QUOTE="Silverwolf, post: 497470, member: 16793"]Yes, the seller was very nice and refunded my money. I've stopped to take time and read about coin collecting, now I understand a lot more than I did before. I am going to get the "red book" 2009 for my new hobby. The things I've learned.. are What, AU, AG, BU, MS, etc means types of coins, and where they came from where to buy them. most important- how to hold them. Ancient coins, and more The four 1 oz silver American Eagle Bullions I bought cost $50 in all. They are 999 silver. Now I noticed that because I was new to this, the "Englehardt" silver coins are better to have, and I was about to get three of them, when the coin dealer offered me four of the ones I have now, which have scratches on them, and he even "cleaned" them on the spot in front of me. somehow I feel as if I've been taken advantage of, in a small subtle way. They are in a plastic flip, and yeah still pretty, but I guess they are fine to invest in. Yeah I even found out that plastic flips aren't that great, and that as a "coin collector" you should get hard plastic holders.[/QUOTE]
