<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1204201, member: 112&quot;]As a genral rule, pawn shops, flea markets, estate sales, antique stores et al are the worst places in the world to shop for coins. This is because the vast majority of coins found in these places are either fakes or problem coins in one way or another. And they are almost always grossly over-priced for what you are getting.</p><p><br /></p><p>That said, if you have the requisite knowledge to be able to identify fakes, altered coins and/or problem coins then there is nothing wrong with looking for you never know when you might actually find something. But if you have that knowledge, 99.99% of the time you will walk away empty handed.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thus, even the looking is pretty much a waste of time.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
