<p>[QUOTE="KBBPLL, post: 26268057, member: 104064"]Take a deep breath, calm down and relax. I think it might be worth mentioning that I see a lot of new people come to coin forums looking for affirmation that their "error" coin is worth a bazillion dollars, and when they get bluntly told that it's worthless, they become combative. Hence when someone like you posts things like "definitely not PMD", people tend to react in a less than courteous fashion I guess. Looking for "errors" is the absolute worst thing you can start with when you're new to coin collecting. It takes a lot of knowledge and experience to know what's possible for the mint to have produced. There are tons of charlatans posting in various places encouraging people to get into coins because they can "get rich from pocket change." People would be better off buying lottery tickets if they think that's ever going to happen. Collect what you enjoy and feel free to ask questions, just stay away from all the "error" stuff for a while first.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
