<p>[QUOTE="Bing, post: 4187471, member: 44132"]I agree that I trust a brick and mortar shop as opposed to some faceless/nameless person on the internet. The biggest problem I find with most local coin shops is a lack of experience with Ancients. I was in a shop last year that happened to have a handful of poor quality LRBs, but you wouldn't know it based on the price tag. The shop owner, knowing only enough to be dangerous, thought he had a gold mine in coins near 2000 years old. I couldn't dissuade him either.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
