And the percentage is determined by what the specific problem is, how severe the problem is, the scarcity/rarity, the popularity, and one&#039;s own desire to own an example of the particular coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>And when buying problem coins there are 2 basic pitfalls that one needs to be aware of. The first is the same pitfall one faces when buying any problem free coin - determining real world value. Make a mistake in that and you&#039;re going make the same mistake with the problem coin. The 2nd comes onto play if and when one ever decides the sell the coin. One has to be aware that not everyone will see things the same way you do and thus sale prices could end up being but a fraction of whatever it was you paid.</p><p><br /></p><p>And yeah, that same problem (the 2nd) exist with problem free coins, but it&#039;s much, much worse with problem coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>So as long as you know all of this, and accept it, there&#039;s nothing wrong with buying problem coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
