[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 2719558, member: 36230"]Unbelievable..... I'm guessing it didn't cross your mind that knowledge plays a huge part in what you're hoping to do? If it did, I don't see why you'd take such offense to sincere and factual suggestions based upon reality. If all you're looking for is silver, then yes... any idiot can do it, but you should've said this was your intent instead of mentioning "collectible or worth something" The fact is, though, if you wanted genuinely exploit the potential, silver is only one possibly small part, and is why knowledge comes into play. I'll never understand why some cannot get it through their heads that there's anything more to coins than simply looking at the date, or that any idiot can simply waltz into the hobby and profit at the expense of those who've spent years honing their craft.

If you want to leave money on the table, that's fine and is certainly your right, but to whine over suggestions to learn is ridiculous. Good luck to you, sir.[/QUOTE]
