<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fiatfiasco, post: 1907299, member: 67957&quot;]I know what you mean. I get anxious when someone hands me a coin and says &quot;show me what&#039;s wrong with this&quot; and the issue doesnt jump out immediately. </p><p><br /></p><p>On a side note, knowing everything there is to know (within reason) about a specific series, or mint mark, or year, etc, can be very profitable. At the coin show I was at a few weeks back I came across a coin, that had been slabbed, and neither the dealer nor the TPG had caught this particular variety. I tried to play it so cool so as not to give it away. I only had I think like $500-$600 on me, but luckily there was an ATM. I asked him to hold that coin, and 5 others (hoping he wouldnt be anle to analyze all 6 in 5mins), gave him $200, and said I would be back in 5mins, to just hold them for 5 mins. I ran there and back. When I got back, I handed him the other $650, and said I could only take out enough for the one I really wanted. I was shaking the whole drive home. Pretty nice identification &quot;Win&quot;. Coin is easily worth $3.5k-4k with the variety attributed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
