<p>[QUOTE=&quot;USS656, post: 287940, member: 6641&quot;]Obviously you didn&#039;t bother to read or give any credence to my first post.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Your statement is a matter of opinion - one I do not share.&nbsp; Length of history does not determine historical importance to all people throughout the world and beauty is in the eye of the beholder.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>What is your point of this thread?&nbsp; If you don&#039;t like American Coins and you think they are too expensive, then don&#039;t buy them!!!&nbsp; Your message seems to imply that Americans pay to much for their not so old/historic, boring, sometimes ugly, and poorly minted coins.&nbsp; If that&#039;s the case - then don&#039;t buy them and stop worrying about the rest of us.&nbsp; If you enter a discussion with a closed mind then you have nothing to learn.&nbsp; I really don&#039;t care to convince you that you should collect American Coins and while you may love ancients, they are not everyone&#039;s cup of tea.&nbsp; You should consider yourself lucky.&nbsp; If Americans as a whole decided to collect nothing but ancient coins the rest of the world would complain about how we forced many collectors out of the hobby and created a higher influx of fakes into a market already saturated by them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
