<p>[QUOTE="samclemens3991, post: 26077987, member: 82181"]I like your coin and to be honest I tried really hard to adopt the attitude of many of the new collectors. I have noticed there is a much stronger market for "details' coins today. I also agree that coins with problems can still be considered collectible and should not be shunned. Having said that, when it came time to pull the trigger and spend actual money on detail coins i could not over ride a motto that has been tattooed on my brain.</p><p>"The let's Collect Coins Booklet", circa 1967. "Do not waste your valuable coin collecting budget on sub par or damaged coins. Putting coins with obvious problems such as holes, harsh cleanings, or other types of damage only lowers the quality of your collection and robs you of precious buying power." Kenneth Bresset. Multiple attempts to ignore this advice proved futile. Good luck with your collection in the future. James[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
