petitioncrown Posted October 15, 2011 Posted October 15, 2011 In the last days after Oct 6th I have heard and listened that I am an idiot, you paid crazy prices, silly money, burning money, +++++. Prices are fuelled at auction with under-bidders. A true price of a coin is quite simple the price that one is pre-pared to pay at a specific time. What creates demand? how many under-bidders are their? There is nothing as strong as passion I have for our hobby and I make NO apologies.Please consider a few facts about Brady a dedicated person who created a collection over 30 years, he brought to the hobby a new reference work on Groats. An amazing focussed collection a catalogue which will be sought as a reference work.I propose another way of looking at the prices, how about saying thank you Mr. Brady for bringing together in one sale such a remarkable collection. We are delighted and hope the prices achieved at auction were some small way an appreciation for your dedication to the hobby. There is no value that can be placed on the time and effort for your soul you devoted to amass such a collection. We wish you every success and hope you find the opportunity to create another collection.jwww.petitioncrown.com Quote

Peter Posted October 15, 2011 Posted October 15, 2011 Not everyone collects model wives,cars,gold hammered....and silver paper from bottle tops (my Dad did).If we all collected the same lived in the same house,drove the same car.You are only the looking after the coins until they get melted at 50p per gram...so enjoy them while you can.
