<p>[QUOTE=&quot;EyeEatWheaties, post: 1066506, member: 26972&quot;]I only pay attention to copper, so what I opine about is in relation to copper wheat cents.</p><p><br /></p><p>I chose one coin to focus on.&nbsp; Get multiples from different sources all the grades, plus genuine and varieties DDO&#039;s .. do some submissions, have dealers do some...&nbsp; so that I can learn the monkey business the OP posted about.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The market of top grades of each coin are driven by those who want the most perfect example they can get. and there are a lot of them.&nbsp; everyone who collects coins appreciates a perfect example, right ?&nbsp;&nbsp; Obviously..&nbsp; &nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Now there a couple of things that happen, guys will bid up top pop coins to add them to their registries. A competition!&nbsp; Nobody ever cheats in a competition now do they?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Then....&nbsp;&nbsp; Someone like the OP submits or puts back out into public some new coins or a long lost roll or long ago hidden away slabs and all the sudden what?&nbsp;&nbsp; a saavy dealer notices that the new coins look a lot nicer than ones in his case with a certain grade.&nbsp; So of course!!!&nbsp;&nbsp; he resubmits them, he knows who is who, he sends a heads up, lets em know what is coming...&nbsp;&nbsp; for sure it happens, it would be foolish to say it doesn&#039;t.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think it is one thing when you are goofing around with $100 coins, quite another when you get into the multiple thousands. and those expensive coins probably should be handled with 10 times the scrutiny that the $100 coin has, yes.. no? capiche?</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s that whole, you have to pay before you can play sort of thing.&nbsp; It is exists everywhere.&nbsp; whether right or wrong...&nbsp; it&#039;s life,&nbsp; and whoever said life was fair?&nbsp; Maybe think of it as a game,&nbsp; think of it as political, think of forming a Political Action Committee, maybe join the club, maybe form a different club, maybe threaten a boycott, try a hostile take over, join a convent...&nbsp; Whatever...&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
