[QUOTE="vanwag, post: 167310, member: 6040"]I [I]really[/I] hate to defend the show... but I would watch it at 5am, and being a former part-time coin collector at various times in my life, it re-piqued my interest in coins. The coins do look pretty, and they are very enthusiastic about them! They were always talking about State Quarters, ASE's, etc... and not having collected for about 20 years it was kinda informative since I was unfamiliar with all the new US stuff. Of course I checked Ebay prices on the same types of sets they were selling, and found that they were ripping their buyers off so I never bought anything, but I visit the Mint kiosk in D.C regularly and recently bought 3 20th Anniversery ASE sets online from the US Mint. Indirectly, its how I found this forum! I was searching for info on Ebay seller ABON on Yahoo which led me here and saved me from making a tragic mistake in believing their made-up grading service (SGS).[/QUOTE]
