[QUOTE="Seattlite86, post: 2991770, member: 59737"]You're mad because people don't agree with you and you're looking for ways to discredit them so you don't have to listen to them. Pure and simple. The only person who appears to be demonstrating that they "know everything" is the one claiming to know whether people looked at his photos, or whether they know anything about numismatics.
