<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dafydd, post: 4022563, member: 86815&quot;]I collected milled coinage when I was younger and moved into Ancients almost by accident by starting to trade with someone who had a large collection. I posted a few at the beginning and was mortified to find that some were fake and I had no real idea of what I was doing. I then bought a fake coin from Ebay at around $200 and had trouble returning it and seriously thought about giving up. I stopped trading and buying coins for a while and bought books instead and spent hours trawling through this site and the Forum website and regained confidence. </p><p>Other collectors were a problem as they were quick to condemn but there were others who were quick to encourage and I hung on and now really enjoying the hobby and putting a collection together that will give me a lifetime hobby of research and photography as I am approaching retirement and too busy to post at the moment as I would like to.</p><p>So my answer would be Fakes and other collectors in that order.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
