<p>[QUOTE="Old Silver, post: 134418, member: 4686"]Hey Midas, Steve can blow into the wind all day but people are listening and learning. While at an antique mall that I frequently visit in MI, I noticed one dealer had several coins raw and slabbed. Right in the middle of the display were six SGS slabs that the dealer said he received with an estate purchase. After talking shop for a few minutes he admitted to me that he might as well give them away because as soon as people look at them they quickly hand them back. He even said one young man referred to them as those "fake" coins from the internet!!!! LOL. It is good to see that collectors are indeed getting educated. It may be a slow process but in time, these deceptive items will dissapear and the dishonest crooks that sell them will eventually end up where they belong, leaving both just a bad memory.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
