<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Fred Weinberg, post: 3311066, member: 86437&quot;]RR - while your post above is well-written,</p><p>it really doesn&#039;t address the issue at hand.</p><p><br /></p><p>Although I don&#039;t know which group I&#039;m in,</p><p>that you mentioned, I know that many others</p><p>on this Error forum chatroom always try to help</p><p>out new collectors and cherry-pickers.</p><p><br /></p><p>However, it appears that the solution to your position</p><p>is that we should tell you and others that -most- of</p><p>what you&#039;re finding (with way too high-powered </p><p>mag. glasses or microscopes) are indeed doubled dies,</p><p>or could be doubled dies .</p><p><br /></p><p>....even when the photos posted for a particular coin</p><p>(that have to be requested numerous times, in some cases)</p><p>show those who know what a true, genuine, Doubled Die</p><p>coin looks like, can easily tell (in 98% of the cases) that </p><p>the coin posted is not a doubled die.</p><p><br /></p><p>So in effect you are saying we are not nice because we</p><p>tell the truth -&nbsp; I do this, and see this often myself at</p><p>coin shows (including last week&#039;s FUN show in Orlando)</p><p>where people simply do not want to believe what someone</p><p>else (not me, &#039;cause it doesn&#039;t matter to me) here tells</p><p>the posters that their coins are not errors or doubled dies.</p><p><br /></p><p>I, and I assume all the other folks who post their opinions,</p><p>views, and facts here, can not keep you happy with false</p><p>info.&nbsp; In fact, most posts that say &#039;sorry, not a doubled die&#039;,</p><p>end with &#039;keep looking&#039;, or some similar sentiment, and also</p><p>include websites or book recommendations to learn about</p><p>the Minting Process or what a doubled die looks like.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry you&#039;ve been offended, snowflake. In life, </p><p>The Truth Can Hurt.</p><p><br /></p><p>Believe me, you are not the first person to tell any of</p><p>us we don&#039;t know what we&#039;re talking about.&nbsp; We are </p><p>not rude in the vast majority of cases, just trying to </p><p>be helpful to new collectors and cherrypickers.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m sure you&#039;ll spend the next few months or years</p><p>thinking how wrong we were in what we said about</p><p>your coins - while most of us here won&#039;t remember you</p><p>by dinnertime.&#039;</p><p><br /></p><p>Numerous times - WE TRIED TO HELP</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Fred[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
