[QUOTE="randygeki, post: 3797507, member: 13719"]Yesterday, I was at school and somehow got into a conversation about ancient coins with my nursing professor. I showed him my coin from Argos: [ATTACH=full]1014437[/ATTACH] He exclaimed that no way could a coin that old be in that good of condition and that I was "gullible." The funny thing being that it's kinda nice but definitely very far from the best example. We argued somewhat but I got the impression he thinks I buy coins from some guy in a trench coat with promises of authenticity and what not. Though I made some pretty valid points, he seems to maintain his point of view that I should be more "skeptical" about ancient coins, even mentioning during in class. Part of me wants to prove him wrong but the other part says "why bother." How do some of you handle similar situations?[/QUOTE]
