[QUOTE="dcarr, post: 2155358, member: 4781"]e Your example bolsters my argument much more than yours. Those "novices" that you are responding to - they are searching for information about numismatics prior to investing any significant sums in coins. Show one example of one of these novices who spent way too much money on a coin that they knew nothing about. It is one thing to think an item you found or inherited is worth a lot of money. It is entirely a different situation to actually SPEND a lot of money for such an item. Again I challenge: find one instance of a fraud committed with one of my coins. Would you spend $75 for your avatar coin (1998-S Matte Kennedy) ? Probably. Why ? Because you know what it is. But what if you were a complete novice and knew nothing about such coins. Would you spend $75 for a half dollar that you know nothing about ?[/QUOTE]
