By definition, newbies don't have the numismatic education to decipher problem coins from problem free coins. This seller offers obvious problem free coins that are described as problem free with photos designed to hide the problem. Simply because you have the numismatic experience to avoid such coins, that does not eliminate the ethical problem for GSC.</p><p><br /></p><p>Again, I'm not condemning their entire inventory and contrary to Bellman's claims, my opinion is not over the top.
