<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GenX Enthusiast, post: 3421623, member: 101075&quot;]Ahahaha! I read this whole thread as if it were posted yesterday<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Totally taken in. Amazing how a tad of confusion about the terms &quot;circulation strike&quot; and &quot;circulated&quot; could cost one a pretty penny<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> ex. &quot;Hi, I have a circulated 1979 LMC I&#039;d like you to buy from me for 3k!&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>The democratisation of information hasn&#039;t helped any experts get better, but has certainly sparked interest in those who may otherwise have not got involved. I won&#039;t bash the vociferous and enthusiastic or blame those that listen, having been one of the latter meself, but, there are levels to collecting coins that are quickly revealed when one tries to extract monetary value from one or get it graded. A couple of good burns from the grading companies will probably reorient one&#039;s reflexes and viewing habits<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>On Youtube, I prefer the Coingeek, because he wears glasses, doesn&#039;t smile a lot and is steps ahead of me in experience, but not so far I can&#039;t understand him. But then, every single one of these fellas has videos on cleaning coins, which, when they are undertaken in the interest of recognizing cleaned coins to avoid the above burns, I appreciate. </p><p><br /></p><p>I make a few videos myself, but just to show recent acquisitions and the like, and I try to make clear to newbies that I&#039;m a novice myself, something experts will realize from the first word. I&#039;m all right if the riches of self promotion go to these guys, as long as the better coins go to the researchers<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
