<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marc Aceton, post: 1999777, member: 72101&quot;]An older fellow collector once told me that you have to be able to assess the quality of a coin correctly. The prerequisite for this is that you have a better knowledge than the &quot;average&quot; dealers.</p><p><br /></p><p>I can see a couple of sales of major auction houses with mixed quality, i.e. there are &quot;forged&quot; and &quot;prettied&quot; coins as well as &quot;good&quot; coins. It is left up to the collectors&#039; responsibility to assess the quality, which definitely bears risks for the inexperienced collector as well as opportunities for the well-versed one.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
