[QUOTE="windwalker, post: 1710692, member: 38923"]Well, yesterday I drove over to see coin dealer #1 and we discussed the coin and looked at my pictures. In fairness to him, as he tells it the label of some sort of guru is not really appropriate to him. He says that he is not the expert that everyone thinks he is. He tries to run an honest shop but admits that he has not seen all the tricks that people play on one another. He sees where he made a mistake and is just glad that he did not sell the coin. He offered to purchase the coin and have it as a teaching tool. Since I really didn't want the coin in my collection (probably a poor decision on my part) I gave it to him in trade for some inexpensive coin supplies (couple of coin tubes). I really didn't think that it was in anyway valuable towards my collection since I have pictures of it. From now on I'm just going to purchase from him now and then and use him as a sounding board with no thought that his opinion is any different from mine.[/QUOTE]
