<p>[QUOTE="krispy, post: 1073178, member: 19065"]Precisely, there are risks, and the comments in this thread from toned coin collectors claiming their market is strong because they are active in it and claiming "You get what you pay for!" wasn't lending much support to the toning market strength/lack of strength argument. The mere suggestion of cracks in this market has been met by several proponents of maintaining this market in which they have significant moneys tied up, hence a vested interest in seeing the toned market remain strong to protect the value they have put into it and their collections. That goes beyond just, "Enjoying collecting them!" since it also takes defensive commentary to deflect any suggestion of weakness.</p><p><br /></p><p>Please note I am <u>not</u> against toned coins or the market for them. I quite admire them but I am seeing a heavy bias in this argument that is not fully objective in defending the toned coin market, which is solely being expressed by toned coin collectors currently.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
