<p>[QUOTE="spock1k, post: 1870502, member: 7043"]ok first the ansswer. some of you guessed it that i cherry picked the coin but unfortunately this is exactly the mistake. i knew the coin was a problem coin but the coin was "rare" so i bought it. the problem is that the coin is not rare and misleading information on the internet makes it a rare coin. the lesson here is unless you are on the ground you can get burned and no amount of research or numismatic knowledge will save you. There are 2 approaches to collect coins one approach is required for US coins and another for world coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>Luckily i only paid $10 above melt so didnt lose out too much but its a lesson learned cheaply.</p><p><br /></p><p>Points table</p><p><br /></p><p>xGAJx 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1</p><p>mrweaseluv 1 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 4</p><p>rlm's cents 1 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 3</p><p>ck1of2 1 2 4 2 0 0 0 0 9</p><p>jensenbay 1 2 0 2 4 5 1 1 16</p><p>wiggam007 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1</p><p>aronsamma 1 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 3</p><p>silentnviolent 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1</p><p>ToughCOINS 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1</p><p>desertgem 2 0 0 5 0 0 0 0 7</p><p>enochian 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1</p><p>ken454 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1</p><p>Nuglet 1 2 2 0 0 0 0 0 5</p><p>jon12 1 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 3</p><p>Sean the Coin Collector 1 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 3</p><p>bigbruiser94 1 2 0 2 0 5 0 0 10</p><p>heuvy31 1 2 0 0 3 5 0 1 12</p><p>Cazkaboom 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1</p><p>theSharpGun 2 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 4</p><p>Hallingood 2 2 4 0 5 5 3 0 21</p><p>jay4202472000 2 5 3 5 3 5 3 1 27</p><p>kbabyjohnson01 1 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 3</p><p>wheatydigger 1 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 3</p><p>Treashunt 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2</p><p>lucyray 2 5 0 0 0 0 0 0 7</p><p>jester3681 1 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 3</p><p>TypicalCreepahx 2 5 2 0 0 0 0 0 9</p><p>ldhair 0 3 2 0 0 5 0 0 10</p><p>harris498 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 2</p><p>kasia 0 2 2 0 0 5 5 1 15</p><p>LOLephant 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 2[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
