<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 3368923, member: 19463"]The good news is hat the issue seems to have been overstruck as a rule so there should be many more out there. The bad news is I had trouble telling crab legs from horse legs. That remnant of the tree trunk is a certain give-away. Isn't one of the main reasons we play here on CT that we can 'encourage' others to buy coins and, in turn, discover things we want to seek out? I really believe that coin dealers as a group benefit greatly from that factor of what we do here but I suppose they might prefer we not call them on the negative things they do. Overall, I believe we sell more coins for them than we jinx to a point that it would be altogether wrong for them to kick in a complementary aureus or two. My definition of a good dealer is one who benefits more from his customers' knowledge than he does from ignorance.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
