<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hookman, post: 3766137, member: 99642&quot;]Hey guys, it&#039;s called HYPE. Whether it&#039;s property, jewelry, coins or cars, you talk UP the selling points to get the best price you can for it.</p><p>Another name for it is Hucksterism.&nbsp; Surely these guys hyping these coins are just like the hucksters selling snake oil.</p><p>Well, at least similar.&nbsp; The coins do have some intrinsic metal value.&nbsp; At best, the snake oil might have had some alcohol in it.</p><p>There was a &quot;Cure-All Elixer&quot; being sold back in the &#039;40&#039;s called Hadacol. Basically it was just vitamins and flavored alcohol. They made a lot of money until the Gubmint stepped in and shut them down for bootlegging and not paying taxes.</p><p>Just another example of Hype and Hucksterism.</p><p><a href="https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&amp;rct=j&amp;q=&amp;esrc=s&amp;source=web&amp;cd=11&amp;cad=rja&amp;uact=8&amp;ved=2ahUKEwjPrN3z5ZXlAhVQXK0KHeQPCmwQFjAKegQIABAB&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FHadacol&amp;usg=AOvVaw1bwXCNCKsjBlYSXSHl9YMF" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&amp;rct=j&amp;q=&amp;esrc=s&amp;source=web&amp;cd=11&amp;cad=rja&amp;uact=8&amp;ved=2ahUKEwjPrN3z5ZXlAhVQXK0KHeQPCmwQFjAKegQIABAB&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FHadacol&amp;usg=AOvVaw1bwXCNCKsjBlYSXSHl9YMF" rel="nofollow">Hadacol - Wikipediahttps://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Hadacol</a></p><p><br /></p><p>The &quot;Hadacol Boogie&quot;&nbsp; Jerry Lee Lewis</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlOjuaolxK4" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlOjuaolxK4" rel="nofollow">watch</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
