<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hiddendragon, post: 1735198, member: 25270&quot;]I feel like world coin collectors aren&#039;t sticklers for condition the way U.S. coin collectors are. If you go over to the U.S. coin discussions on this forum, everything is &quot;Is my coin MS 64 or MS 65&quot; and so on. I feel like it doesn&#039;t matter as much with foreign coins. I know that when I buy, as long as the coins are in decent shape, the prices don&#039;t seem to vary much between good and XF or so. For the rare coins, condition still matters for the really nice grades, but I don&#039;t see people saying things like &quot;I&#039;m collecting MS 65 British pennies.&quot; The few times I&#039;ve been to coin shows and seen dealers who had common coins priced high based on condition I felt like they were ripping people off (let&#039;s say they had a 1947 British penny in great shape for $8). No matter what Krause says, people just don&#039;t pay those prices. Maybe it&#039;s just my perception. What do others think?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
