[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 985244, member: 26302"]Try going to Frequently Asked Questions about the view of posts. There are some setting on your browser you can change to make it go back to normal. Like others have said, we have all bought stupid things, and its a part of learning. The other point someone made is excellent, if you cannot grade yourself, why are you paying extra for someone else's grade? If you cannot tell the difference between 69 and 70, you are much better off buying 69's. This race for 70 is silly. It all boils down to needing to be able to grade yourself, learning about the coins, and then making educated decisions. Blindly buying any MS70 because of the grade will just lead to poor purchases and more heartache down the line. Too many 70's are being pushed by the less savory aspect of this hobby. Btw, there is no such thing as a MS70 coin except for modern coins, (last 20 years). I have never seen one slabbed 70 by a reputable firm. There are billions of attractive, important, beautiful coins, but not one MS70. Then there are historically important, attractive ancient artifacts I collect, any one of my VG coins I wouldn't trade for any modern MS70 in existence, but that is just me.[/QUOTE]
