<p>[QUOTE="scottishmoney, post: 1988419, member: 12789"]It is the equivalent of being a car aficionado and paying someone else to do all the work on your car. If you are happy with that, fine. I know people that own muscle cars from the 1960s and hired someone to do all the engine, interior, painting etc. If you are a purist enthusiast you do all that yourself - there is nothing like actually working on something and appreciating everything about it. But as interested in 1960s muscle cars as I am, I am not willing to do all the work, put up with the maintenance, the looky loos etc. - so I don't own the car I really would like.</p><p><br /></p><p>I enjoy the historical aspect of numismatics as well as the diagnostic side. Not to say I haven't been stung on counterfeits or cleaned coins - but experience has demonstrated that those have even made it into TPG holders from the big three.
