<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kristine Garrant, post: 24568421, member: 124772&quot;]Almost definitely. But like I went to a coin small coin show in Raleigh North Carolina and I got dismissed and treated the exact same way.&nbsp;&nbsp; so these comments on Coin Talk is on top of the how I got treated at the coin show.&nbsp;&nbsp; I get enough backlash out there in public on a regular day just from people who never graduated 7th grade.&nbsp;&nbsp; but when I&#039;m so trying to learn something and I&#039;m being honest with my questions... cuz I&#039;m trying to figure it out and it&#039;s hard to look at something and say oh this is this and that is that when you&#039;re new.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I had a friend who took drove all the way to a coin show in Baltimore because he found what he thought was a 1964 satin SMS.&nbsp; They even knew that he was coming.&nbsp; He called the coin grading company and said hey I&#039;m coming. And they treated him like dog poo.&nbsp;&nbsp; The one guy picked up the coin and tossed it on the table like it was nothing. Finally he got them to accept that he wanted to get this graded.&nbsp;&nbsp; He had to fill out a membership for NGC. </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; He wasn&#039;t feeling comfortable with how he got treated and everything, so he went back the next day and he asked for his coins back.&nbsp; they couldn&#039;t find them!!&nbsp; So for months he kept calling up there and it would say he&#039;s next in line and then the phone would hang up on him.&nbsp; He kept calling NGC&#039;s headquarters and calling them and calling them.&nbsp; He finally got through.&nbsp; And&nbsp; they finally found his coins!! They were in the new membership whatever cuz he had to fill out a membership at the coin show to get them graded. </p><p>&nbsp; And guess what? It IS a 1964 SMS satin!!! He&#039;s 4 years younger than me,&nbsp; dresses like&nbsp; a younger guy would, new to coins!&nbsp; &nbsp; He doesn&#039;t look like your average nusimatic&nbsp; enthusiast.&nbsp;&nbsp; but he&#039;s bound and determined with his coin hunting. He hit the jackpot.&nbsp; After hearing his story my heart just went out to him.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
