<p>[QUOTE=&quot;darrowcrowe, post: 1225377, member: 27209&quot;]You go out and find a old house that is falling apart. Underneath the front porch you find with a metal detector a nice 1793 Chain cent. You pay extra to ship it to get it graded. The Post office loses it. Would you settle for one cent? You found the house, you bought the metal detector, you drove there. I have spent years learning about coins. I bought books, paid for Newspapers, drove to coin shows over decades, spent my time looking through rolls of coins. Some of the coins I bought in the 90&#039;s. Some were lucky finds of course. I spent good money to insure them. If you bought a MS66 1880S Morgan years ago and the Post Office lost it would you settle for $30 in silver? That is what the Post Office is asking me. Settle for collectable coins as if they were circulated common silver. Would you? My Post Master at the main Post Office said that once they lost a Rolex.. a commonly produced watch, to show off your wealth, hawked by celebrities that do nothing for anyone but themselves was paid for now that is something that should have been replaced by the new amount of precious metal in it..[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
