<p>[QUOTE=&quot;coleguy, post: 690143, member: 9167&quot;]I agree. In fact, I spend much of my hobby time reading about coins, versus buying them. I suppose what I meant was eye appeal is important, but what I may find appealing in that sense may not be appealing to others based on a set of requirements they feel they need to meet to satisfy others. Who&#039;s collection is it really, if you spend your time building a world-class collection based on other people&#039;s criteria? I guess for people who collect to sell it makes sense. For those that don&#039;t, a world-class collection is what they always have, regardless, because it&#039;s what they like. I&#039;m not saying I don&#039;t agree with all the technical aspects that make this hobby interesting....I practice quite a few myself. But, I think people who are professionals and those who are hobbyists need to distinguish the gap between the two. I see too many newcomers get lost in all the jargin that doesn&#039;t apply to them, and the expectations drive them out of the hobby alltogether.</p><p>Guy~[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
