Starting off with "I found this beat up penny in a parking lot covered in gashes, is it a super rare error?" will make us strongly dislike you. Posting thoughtful questions on threads and learning will make us like you. If you think you have an error or a cool find, spend an afternoon googling (or, even better, reading a book) and learning about it before posting. I'm willing to answer super-noob questions - but please understand that if you ask the same question as 20 other posters in the past week, we might get frustrated.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
