[QUOTE="mynamespat, post: 2660076, member: 83738"]It seems like there are 3 types of coin shop owners. First, the 'We Buy Gold' peoples who generally don't have any numismatic background. Then you have the people who don't really need the money. They generally own the store because they love coins and use it as an excuse to expand their collection. They see a customer as an inconvenience who is taking away time from their numismatic pursuits. Finally, the great rarity, the coin shop owner who both loves coins and loves customers. They know what they are talking about and they will spend the time to help a genuinely curious individual learn more. (I've never been to NYC, but I'm pretty sure I know which coin shop you are talking about from reading the online reviews)[/QUOTE]
