<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paddy54, post: 2740519, member: 19250&quot;]This one has a lot of studying&nbsp; to do.... Now I do understand&nbsp; the addiction&nbsp; to buying coins....but buying junk and detailed&nbsp; coins isn&#039;t&nbsp; an addiction&nbsp; it&#039;s&nbsp; a problem .</p><p>Again to the op please read though&nbsp; these threads,buy a book, use Google and learn about&nbsp; coins just don&#039;t&nbsp; throw your money down on a coin you know nothing&nbsp; about.</p><p>As stated above&nbsp; by a very respected member&nbsp; here on CT you&nbsp; need to research&nbsp; what you&#039;re&nbsp; buying and from whom.</p><p>The 2 coins you so far have posted one a half cent damaged&nbsp; and cleaned from another&nbsp; known seller of problem&nbsp; coins...does not have &quot;eye appeal &quot; ! </p><p>I can assure&nbsp; you the company&nbsp; you now wish to do business&nbsp; with is well known&nbsp; for&nbsp; selling&nbsp; detailed&nbsp; problem coins. And they don&#039;t&nbsp; disclose&nbsp; the issues! </p><p>Not a month ago a member here purchased&nbsp; what looked to be a well struck buffalo nickel.</p><p>The coin had a beautiful&nbsp; strike great color and a&quot; huge rip&quot; at 7 k almost into the date!</p><p>From the same seller that selling this Stone Mountain&nbsp; coin.</p><p>This&nbsp; isn&#039;t&nbsp; posted to put you down or make you feel bad.....it posted because We who have been collectors want others to enjoy this hobby&nbsp; that we love. We don&#039;t&nbsp; want people to start collecting&nbsp; and be taken because they don&#039;t&nbsp; have&nbsp; the knowledge&nbsp; to make purchases&nbsp; that are good choices.</p><p>You wouldn&#039;t&nbsp; jump on a horse and expect to know how to ride.....trust me the horse will throw you,or run you back to the barn.</p><p>If you really have an interest&nbsp; in this hobby please read,research , and as questions .</p><p>Majority&nbsp; of the members&nbsp; here who truly have a passion&nbsp; for this hobby would rather you ask a question&nbsp; then to see you loose money on something&nbsp; not worth having.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
