<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BooksB4Coins, post: 2732249, member: 36230&quot;]I do thank you for this, but please don&#039;t worry about it, Tyler; all is well. However, do look at how this individual responded to your post (#60) and ask yourself why someone, on an <i>educational</i> forum, would refuse to cite their sources or share where their information supposedly came or comes from. </p><p><br /></p><p>Unfortunately, people spew a lot of potentially harmful nonsense, even here, and such misinformation is one of the biggest problems facing this hobby as a whole. It would be nice, I agree, to always see the best in people or to try to reasonably justify their actions, but not everyone is so deserving, and the sad fact is such ridiculous claims help or benefit no one while <i>easily</i> causing more harm than good. Consider how you would feel if you, when very new to the hobby, had a coin you found mention of being worth $4500. I&#039;m sure you&#039;d be excited (as we all would have), but now think of how you&#039;d feel to learn that all the excitement was for not, and that your coin was actually worthless. First impressions do matter, and when someone&#039;s first experience with coins is a complete letdown, let&#039;s just say it doesn&#039;t always bode well for their further involvement, and can impact the greater hobby as a whole. If you disagree I can certainly respect that, but I strongly feel that one who would intentionally mislead others isn&#039;t worth respectful consideration, or even the simple niceties they otherwise would unquestionably deserve.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
