[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 4144743, member: 77814"]Recommend searching coin websites for information. But one also has to be careful as there are websites disguised as coin sites. If a website has short pieces of information surrounded by all sorts of advertisements, then skip that website address. This is something else though as it is a news website which simply grabbed content from a news distribution service. Getting coin information from a news website you have to look at it's source. Unfortunately this article was distributed from Tribune Media and probably written by someone that knows nothing about coins which appears that person was perusing eBay. If you read the entire article you can start to understand some of it's obsurdity. So you need to search for "a quarter" that currently is on "eBay". So you are searching for something that has already been found. "According to reports" .. do they mean according to the auction description ?? 22 ppl expressed interest? like .. bidders ? I also think in this case they wrote the article to capture readers attention, which is all used to drive traffic and hopefully advertising monies. Stick to getting coin information from coin websites. fyi, there are also "generated" search results which if you get stuck on those loops will provide search results "tailored to you". Tidbits of information from a secondary search cobbled together with advertisements all around with incomplete and inaccurate information. So be careful where you get your information from.[/QUOTE]
