From the questions asked I believe that most of them are young children just wounding if the wrinkled up bill they found in change or at the bank is worth something more than just a $ 1.00
as putting down young children. If it is about a bill/ coin that they can easily find on the internet, then I do think that it is total laziness, as I showed earlier. However, I am about to post a bill that I have spent over 10 hours trying to identify and I still can't find out what that bill is.
Harry Potter is an example that I use of young children doing things that most adults can't do.
As I just got into the hobby (started to research further than the country that a coin came from), all I have read is three books; The
Red Book (2013), A Kid's Guide to Collecting Coins, and One Coin is Never Enough: Why and How We Collect. I would recommend reading the last one, as it is partially a book on coins and partially a psychology text, about what draws us, as collectors, to collect coins.
Comet states "those people", not kids, which is a much better way to put it as, if you say kids, it sounds like children are much less capable then adults, which isn't true. I did miss the grading part, which can be hard for people unused to coin grading (I am currently finding it hard so I can put that honesty).
Afternote; as I am 14 years old, I do not take people putting down kids kindly. I have been put down too many times by adults before they really know me, and don't believe what I tell them.
Also; I apologize how the first one reads.. I didn't read it over before posting so it looks a little sharper than I meant for it to be.
