Ever watch the Antique Road Show in TV. Every item shown is always, and I mean always, the topic of value. How much is it worth? How much should I insure it for? And although many on that show actually say I just wanted an idea if it's valuable. Yet the answer is always in $$$$$$$$$.
On a few other coin web sites I've seen questions such as is this real? Should I save it? Are they hard to find? Yet although value wasn't mentioned, the people on that site too blab out things like "Not worth much" or "just worth a few dollars". And again, the value was not the question.
NO, your far from alone in not really worrying about the value of your coins. It's that so many people only think money, money, money.
I've got a few older cars. When I take one out for a ride, first thing I hear is what do you think that's worth? Not great day for a convertible.
Even Christmas time gets me a bit when I give something to someone and they say, wow, this looks expensive. Again, just to many people think money, money, money.
Of course look at it like this. If no one really cared about money, you could just walk into a auto dealer and say I want that and away you go. At a coin show, you could say I want one of each and no problem since there would be no cost. AND that is what I'm waiting for.
