[QUOTE="nicholasz219, post: 5311922, member: 75641"]Remarkable thread in how interesting it is and how accessible to a novice it is. I thoroughly enjoyed all of the lights of the forum chiming in to teach me a thing or two. I think that it is interesting and great to find under-attributed or misattributed coins. If everything was perfect and there was no hope of ever finding a bargain (even just a few dollars) I don’t know how fun looking through the inventory of a dealer or an auction would be. I try to look and attribute to several references partially because I’m nuts and also partially because I want to hopefully link all of the major references to each of my collection entries.
