Byron,
I'm having a bit of trouble finding the "attitude of not wanting
anyone else to know what you know" in the earier posts. I see only a
discussion about why those darn profit maximizing business people
would have marketed coins as they did.
Maybe you are one of us who thinks that it would be nice if hoards
are preserved and researched prior to dispersal. Your post is not
clear on that. Wishing it so and being appalled will not make it so.
What is a hobby for some is a business for others. Hoards will only
be well researched once auction houses and others for whom it is a
business find it in their best interest to do so. I think that this
can happen. We reward those who do as we like with our bids. Just my
appraisal of reality as I see it.
Now my question: is my attitude appalling to you?
I'm mostly just confused by your post, Buell
