[QUOTE="Kurisu, post: 5374957, member: 117063"]I posted this in your other thread too...I know. Double post but just wanted to make sure it's seen... [USER=116851]@Salvador Villalobos[/USER] My advice is simple...if you are walking into a room of people, some of whom you believe to know more than you, some "experts" even... I would advise that you ask your question, with a clear photo and sit back and wait... Then take a look at the reference information the good people here offered with their answer. No one is being a hater...but some are being snarky because they feel you are responding without first looking into your own question now that you have more info. Would you walk into your doctor's office for your test results, have a question or two and then tell your doctor that he/she is wrong? You came here seeking people who know more than you (or maybe initially you thought you might actually know as much, and that's ok!) but now...be humble and do the additional research you now have access to. There is A LOT to learn...even if you've been a serious collector for over 40 years like me, or MUCH longer like many of the beautiful souls here who just want to help and support you and everyone else interested in numismatics. Know that VERY few collectors ever find "in the wild" the kind of things you are claiming to have... just some respect (and tact) for the people here will take you far!!! Notice that no one is being disrespectful and asking you to leave or anything like that :) I offer you this advice with love in my heart...coin communities tend to support, help, and encourage each other like this...for many decades...all ages... Allow yourself to be completely shot down when your initial diagnosis of a coin is entirely wrong. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO US ALL, I PROMISE :)[/QUOTE]
