<p>[QUOTE="CamaroDMD, post: 2602848, member: 5233"]Actually, I can read just fine. I saw what you wrote. You said we all have that right...you are correct. You then went on to point out that "professionals" know better and that "astute collectors eventually learn what is considered attractive/acceptable to the "market" and modify their personal tastes." Clearly, you are trying to point out that you feel that I am an amateur at this.</p><p><br /></p><p>I actually have a pretty good knowledge base in this stuff. This coin was probably treated in some way chemically before it came into my possession. I have never altered the surfaces on this coin. Over the years that I have owned it, it has developed some very interesting patterns. Just because I find this piece interesting and I enjoy it does not mean that I am in some way not an astute collector or that I don't understand what the market accepts. Because it is a bullion piece, I have never really concerned myself with it and am content to enjoy it as is.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
