<p>[QUOTE="Indianhead65, post: 282895, member: 103422"]I think that part of our function as coin collectors is to promote and encourage new collectors into the hobby. I would rather that a new collector come here to CT before buying coins on Ebay and ask about a particular coin that he/she is interested in than unknowingly bid and finally win a "fake" coin and lose possibly 100s of dollars and lose trust in all sellers and in the end give up the hobby. If we as long time collectors can pick out and identify the counterfiet coins on Ebay and post them in CT they can become learning tools for the newer (and some older) collectors and make them more aware of what to look for. I agree that we only catch a fraction of the counterfiet coins that are posted for sale on Ebay every day and unfortunately not all of them get pulled in time. Thats what I have to say about that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
