peanut26 Valued Member Canada 276 Posts	Posted 02/05/2024 4:38 pm All kinds of posts for all kinds of reasons. New inheritance, strange looking coin in hand, heard of get rich with a great coin, saw something on utube. No matter the reason this is a coin forum so the images will be posted, the questions will be asked, some with no experience at all, some with limited experience. Not everyone who pops their nose in here is a coin enthusiast, they just want an answer and then move on. It's the platform for it, it gets used as such, to do research for a novice collector with limited knowledge of even doubled dies, terminology and such could be an overwhelming endeavor. Again I will say this is "the platform" that an individual can come to where people have the knowledge base to assist. I see pics posted from members with very high post counts...still asking is this what I think it is? When in doubt ask, if the hobby is cared about the person will seek the learning needed to continue. What is obvious to some is not necessarily to another. Think back to the very first experience collecting coins did you identify and know everything...just thoughts...from a novice collector. Report this Post to the Staff

jfeed Pillar of the Community United States 1266 Posts	Posted 02/05/2024 8:54 pm In my opinion, there are many "types" of so called coin collectors. One being the person who is genuinely interested in making the process of collecting a learning experience while at the same time admiring and enjoying the craftmanship in each coin. Learning about hubs, collars and single strikes, etc. is exciting and so is understanding such things as DDR, DDO and MD. Thank God for sites like CCF where you can chat with people who have the same passion that you do. It doesn't have to be a major DDO to get the old heart pumping. A "minor" DDO or DDR or die chip or lamination can cause a person to keep filling the jars with coins picked up in change or from parking lots. The only way to learn is ask...That's why there is so much conversation about doubled die coins.. We want to know by learning. Then there's the person who will post a coin on CCF that he found in his mother in law's pocket book wanting to know one thing "How much can I sell it for"... Report this Post to the Staff
