<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mark Feld, post: 311122, member: 11467&quot;]Thanks for that post.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Sadly, over the years I have seen many situations where, for various reasons, collectors went to sell coins they thought they would be keeping forever, and experienced terrible shock and disappointment. It turned out that some of them had counterfeit coins, while others had coins which were so badly over-graded that they were worth roughly 10% of what they thought they were. In many instances the sellers who had ripped off the collectors were long since gone and there was no recourse available to them. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>These occurrences are not that unusual and are extremely sad and disturbing. In many cases they might have been prevented if the collectors had gotten their coins checked out, one way or another. Ignorance might be bliss, but that bliss is only temporary. And knowledge and awareness are excellent alternatives, even if you plan to keep your coins forever.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
