[QUOTE="The Half Dime, post: 26226848, member: 153164"]That line would hurt even if you couldn't afford the coin. A 1795 half dime is easily a 4-digit coin but that leaves no excuse to judge the amount of money by one's looks, especially since some of the scrawniest-looking people can carry very fat wallets. That's why I only buy in coin auctions outside of clubs. There is a lot of money to be made in the auctions, but predicting what coins will sell for how much can be worse than the stock market. At least with stocks there is a general idea of where they are headed in a certain time frame. Kinda like gold. I don't have a problem with you being here, especially with your GTGs. A benefit is that you seem to be pretty well-known around here too. Seems like CU is a place where the majority of people wouldn't consider many a friend, especially when a lot of arguing about petty things occurs there. That's why Cointalk rules! ;) In the words of the great "Weird Al" Yankovic: [I]Expect a big surprise today [B]When you wind up with your head impaled upon a stick [/B][/I] Looks like you are planning to give that dealer a "Your Horoscope For Today" treatment, although that can mean a large lot of things. ;) It's quite sad that division through numismatics can be way worse than division through politics. Modern coins are sometimes just as interesting as older ones - ask any coin roll hunter, and they will likely tell you this. I myself am a coin roll hunter, and modern coins are quite nice.[/QUOTE]
