<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1915332, member: 26302&quot;]Btw, concerning this passage. Where do you think most knowledge from the internet and coin clubs come from? Where do those club members get their knowledge? Mainly dealers. Most authors of the books we rely on for our knowledge of coins are/were dealers. Sure there have been some good collectors over the years, but even their knowledge base was formed from mainly dealer written books on the subject. Dealers are &quot;ground zero&quot; in most cases for building our knowledge base. Sure NOW everyone knows this information, but they didn&#039;t before dealers wrote about it. I actually know authors of numismatic books, a couple are in my ancient coin club, and they will be the first to admit they are standing on the shoulders of giants, mainly dealers.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
