<p>[QUOTE="Seattlite86, post: 2499751, member: 59737"]You wouldn't let some young buck call a pistol a rifle would you? That's the same way we speak here. There's a difference between a revolver and a pistol. This is place for people to speak about coins knowledgeably. If you go calling a pistol a revolver when it isn't, you're going to confuse a lot of people who don't understand anything about guns. In numismatics, there is a HUGE difference between altered surfaces and fake/counterfeit. Sometimes hundreds/thousands of dollars and a visit from the Secret Service. Not everyone uses the best tact when discussing coins, but that doesn't negate the fact that they speak from a logical standpoint. I suggest you reach down and pull out some of that military bearing (I'm on active duty and spent 25 months in Iraq and Afghanistan so when I say military bearing, I know the true meaning of it) and stop calling people names or getting upset. If you aren't willing to distinguish between altered surfaces and fake/counterfeit, than don't be mad when others correct you.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
