[QUOTE="Cucumbor, post: 2970150, member: 4298"]Europe IS actually a mountain of metal : people find hoards every day. They come up publicly in the UK and are often hidden in France just because of different laws about finds So many people don't believe Iceland even exists or think the 9/11 was an invention...Try to convince them and you won't bother a lot about those who can't believe ancient coins are ancient My vision too. I've been in the hobby for so long that I've stopped trying to even show coins to people not interested in them. I will only on request and to close friends and/or relatives, implying we have previously discussed the subject, and they show the minimum interest requirement for being admitted to have a look ( :D). I don't remember having been asked about their authenticity. Rather I see two categories : some ask "what is it ?", others "how much is it worth ? ". My input in the answer will vary from very talkative in the first case to very vague in the latter Q[/QUOTE]
