[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 54973, member: 112"]Why not indeed !! That's what this hobby is about after all. And if you like to collect coins with die cracks - more power to ya ;) There are thousands of collectors out there who do the same thing. But I think the point that some of the others are trying make is that very few coins with die crack errors ever turn out to have much value. Some do though - look what happened with Morgan VAMS. Most of those are because of die chips & cracks. And that's the other point - errors like this have to be recognized and widely accepted in the numismatic community. Perhaps some with the new Buff will be recognized - most, likely will not be recognized. But in time - ya never know what will happen. But in the meantime - if collecting rings your bell - then collect away ;)[/QUOTE]
