<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2286043, member: 19463&quot;]Yes but if only two people came to the sale looking for the type, the third would not sell or be bought by a dealer for opening and resold to someone who was not at the sale.&nbsp; The question is which technique returns the best result for the total of the three.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I certainly agree with this.&nbsp; The coin is beyond gorgeous.&nbsp; I see this as a problem for a collector like Volodya since anyone who saw this coin would recognize it was a nice item and a fair number would want it.&nbsp; If one of them happened to be a </p><p>sheik or Internet billionaire things could get tense. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m surprised at&nbsp; that statement considering the desire to correct the loss years ago.&nbsp; I know a couple collectors who have coins bought sixty years ago.&nbsp; If a collector of that ilk bought the treasured item, you might not have even one more chance.&nbsp; I go on that theory a lot and buy coins I want when I see them rather than waiting for the FDC example that may or may not exist.&nbsp; Below are three coins I wanted.&nbsp; No one here, save possibly Martin, would want any of them or know which of them is going to be hard to replace, let alone upgrade.&nbsp; When no one cares, money is not a consideration.&nbsp; If anyone reading this far is into this hobby for the money, I am filled with surprise and pity.&nbsp; My style of collecting does not fear shieks but I am terrified of Martin. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]457585[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]457586[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]457587[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
