<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JayF, post: 3057308, member: 92530&quot;]Yeah, the only reason I held out a bit was because I didn&#039;t know how the reeding actually applied, I understood it was done via the collar but I don&#039;t know what the device / machine looks like and so I was searching and searching as I wanted to visually see how it works (I&#039;m in the IT field so I&#039;m stubborn that way lol.) But, after getting the same opinion from a professional attributer (no offense), I figured it&#039;s not worth chasing anymore.</p><p><br /></p><p>The reason I keep coming back here is to see what people are actually finding out there, I can easily spot the non-errors simply because I learned how the coins are struck and that helped me a lot in understanding what errors can happen.&nbsp; I skip the 82s and 69s posts once I check the pics posted and move on reading other posts.&nbsp; I can confidently say that I read every post in the What&#039;s it worth, Coin chat and Error coins forums.</p><p><br /></p><p>I do plan on going to coin shows when time permits (single dad here, double job lol)&nbsp; I&#039;m a visual type of person and right now, I don&#039;t feel like I&#039;ve graduated from pennies, so much to learn.&nbsp; I saw some Morgan dollars at the local coin shop today and the first thing that came to my mind is &quot;I&#039;m buying all of them&quot; because they all looked shiny and just looked perfect.&nbsp; So so much to learn, but the good thing about this hobby...time is on my side.</p><p><br /></p><p>Lastly, this hobby (at least to me) is what you really want it to be, right now, I&#039;m quite happy just finding the 60s and 70s shiny pennies. When I do my weekly $5 CRH, I get excited when I see a memorial ender haha but that&#039;s how it is for me.</p><p><br /></p><p>Ok, last lastly.&nbsp; With regards to YouTube I know what channels you&#039;re talking about but there are other channels that are actually informative / educational.&nbsp; I&#039;m currently binging on a channel where the youtuber (he&#039;s a buyer/seller) shows him unboxing expensive coins he submits and then does a GTG kind of thing.&nbsp; It&#039;s interesting because you can see how PCGS grades different coins.&nbsp; His name is Dr. G, check it out and let me know what you think.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for all the advice and tips, I&#039;ll definitely do all of that.&nbsp; And apologies for the long winded reply lol.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
