[QUOTE="kirispupis, post: 7650301, member: 118780"]Sorry to drag this on, but I also disagree with the attitude that "OMG what's happening to this hobby. I'm so sick of it." First, there are many reputable sellers out there. If you know your coin and you buy from one of these sellers, your odds of getting a genuine coin are high. Second, yes, there are morons out there who are easily parted with their money, and it's not just coins. I invest in apartment buildings on the side and I've literally seen people waste millions of dollars on properties that aren't worth it, but con artists convince them to buy. However, those people are idiots and you're not. You spend $100 on a nice 2000-year-old denarius and they spend $8k on a 2020 Serbian/Bulgarian lump of silver.
