<p>[QUOTE="tommyc03, post: 2865352, member: 17665"]Imagine, if you will, a hunter who spends all winter looking for that huge rack on a buck he's seen but never nailed down. Then one day comes along and he has his shot and claims it. It's an adrenalin rush. He's a responsible hunter and eats the meat, not just saving and mounting the rack. Now, imagine the thrill I had earlier this year when I finally opened a bank wrapped roll of 1998P cents I had laying around since getting them then. Found 12 beautiful wide AM's. At that time there were only 30 graded MS67 from the top three TPG's and I added three more to that. Three others graded MS66 and the rest MS65. For me that was a rush. And a little while back I cracked a BRR of 1995P cents to find two gorgeous EDS doubled dies. Neither case will make me rich but I feel richer for this experience. The minor errors are a small source of income for me on Ebay, but still, it is the thrill of the hunt. We all have different interests for sure and I applaud yours. For me, will my big rack buck be the next 1983 copper cent? One never knows but the search continues. And I think the two folks who recently found the no "S" proof cents buried away are very happy they are many thousands of dollars richer for. Nope, it's not everyone's cup of tea, but it sure is mine. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
