[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 3130358, member: 10461"]Don't try to find logic where there isn't any, at least in the traditional sense. ("[I]Stop Making Sense[/I]", to quote the Talking Heads, circa 1984.) Lowball collectors are a breed apart. I think they're a bit nutty. Not for for collecting lowball coins, but for wasting money and time slabbing, stickering, and registering them, and paying crazy sums. But to each his own. That being said, I [I]can[/I] respect their kookiness and their contrarian way of turning conventional numismatic wisdom on its head. They're lunatics, but I kind of like their lunacy. It's more refreshing than so many other forms we see.[/QUOTE]
