<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 534479, member: 4552"]And one more thing I just sort of thought of. Your question would also depend on how long a person has been in buisness. That to is usually true of many, many buisnesses. I know a computer repair place that when you look at the layout you would swear he got hit by a tornado. I highly doubt he has any idea of what is there, now many, thier sizes, age, etc. </p><p>I'm not a dealer but I too realize that time makes for a poor memory. I've been collecting coins for well over 60 years and have very little idea of what my collection contains. For instance I know I have about 30 to 40 rolls of steel cents but exactly how many is unknown. I know I have many, many rolls of Mercury Dimes, some also in 2x2's, and 12 Whitman Albums of them. But the total is a mystery for whoever ends up with them someday. </p><p>I would suspect a coin store is a little better than me but if in buisness a long time, possibly not.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
