<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TypeCoin971793, post: 5381702, member: 78244&quot;]You grossly overestimate the scope of the problem and the ability of a dealer to recognize every stolen coin. They are able to recognize high-profile coins, cross-reference lists reported stolen items, and observe suspicious behavior on part of the seller. They are not able to recognize that a collection of raw generic Morgan dollars or bullion (or any type for that matter) offered to then, which had already passed hands, was stolen. You merely assume they can because “they should” and because “they are liable.” The second part means that dealers try to not buy any stolen stuff and do their due diligence when there are red flags, but they DO NOT have the ability to recognize every single thing that has been stolen.</p><p><br /></p><p>I generally refrain from using the phrase “you’re stupid” unless warranted, but you are clearly lacking in common sense in what you demand of the numismatic community. You are speaking emotionally rather than logically[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
