I&#039;m limited to coins I own. And, I make every effort to never buy a coin with problems or defects.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve learned by looking at the sorts of coins Insider shows - and so I don&#039;t own them. I&#039;ve bought them in the past, realized they had problems, and sold them. Or, I&#039;ve seen them at shows. Many of the problem coins I bought were before I got decent photography equipment, and so I don&#039;t have good pictures of the problem coins I had. Thus, it&#039;s really hard for me to post a good quiz like he can.</p><p><br /></p><p>When I was writing my book, I did intentionally buy a few problem coins to illustrate and explain. However, financially, this is generally a losing proposition. I&#039;m not going to spend good money on a problem coin just to take pictures of it and sell it back. All this adds up to, Insider is in a unique position to photograph a host of problem coins, or coins with interesting defects, and post them as informative and useful quizzes - or even skip the quiz and just teach us something.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
