<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 1265331, member: 19463&quot;]There also are an increasing number of people who think that a coin that is corroded and damaged looks &#039;ancient&#039; and is therefore more interesting than one in good shape.&nbsp; In the 1980&#039;s I was considered odd because I bought junky looking coins.&nbsp; Now I seem to be a condition snob who turns up his nose at &#039;experienced&#039; coins.&nbsp; My coins have not changed but the standards of new collectors is now accepting of things I preferred to avoid.&nbsp; Certainly there are still many collectors with coins much better than any of mine but few of them post online and buy on ebay.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
