Greetings to all "CC" fans. There is an article that I consider "must reading" for all coin collectors. It was written by Rusty Goe and is entitled "Not all Coin Dealers Struck from Same Die: A Primer on Particular Types of Professional Numismatists" To view this special article, click on this link: http://www.expertclick.com/NewsReleaseWire/default.cfm?Action=ReleaseDetail&ID=20108&f5=1
After you read this, post a comment. I would love to hear what your thoughts are regarding this subject.

Finding a good coin dealer is almost as important as learning about the coins themselves.
Nice comment js...it's so true especially now when all manner of bogus PCGS & NGC slabs are comming out of China
Nobody other than author Rusty can put this reflection on the industry of Coin dealers,to print!At the end of the day, or rainbow, you have to establish a TRUST-WORTHY REALTIONSHIP with a Dealer or you're screwed!
I've been fortunate that I have a number of dealers I can rely on in the Chicago area.
Once when I was in Houston there was what I thought was a coin shop on Eldridge Drive near where I was working. " _____ Coin". So one night I drove there to just determine what hours they were open. There was a sign on the door that said something like "This is not a coin shop. We do not have coins on display or time for conversation. If you have coins to sell you are welcome to enter." I turned on my heels. The I found US Coin in Houston on Highway 10. Wonderful place.
