    For years of tolerating the public's coin "knowledge" they should get to a higher plane. :p

    Not if they use it to take advantage of the public.

    Seems like the only thing the public sells with zero effort to know what they have is ...coins.
    :p

    Very few I would imagine.

    Saint Feldini surely one of the few.

    Everyone of us deserves a little heaven for some good deeds we've done in our lives ..... this includes those coin dealers or any what you would call "LL"

    Beelzebub used to deal coins on the side until he had so much trouble with his conscience that he couldn't sleep.
    He gave it up and became Bernie Madoff's silent partner.
    Slept like a baby ever since.

    Hell is always getting what you want...

    Still Scrooge repented and changed his ways and even as a money man had many virtues and was law abiding.

    Is Walter Breen considered a coin dealer? He did cataloging for coin auction companies.

    Was Walter Brennan a coin collector?

    Did they call him "Wally"?

    So many questions.............................

    Breen was a famous numismatist and researcher and he wrote several coin books. He was also a twice convicted pedophile who was murdered while in prison. I'm guessing he didn't go to heaven.

    Since coin collectors are hoarders and, therefore, harbingers of avarice, collectors definitively go to hell

    Disagree. Since when is saving money for a rainy day considered to be a vice rather than a virtue? As Ben Franklin once said "A penny saved is a penny earned."

    ben is in hell for metoo stuff I think :D

    a few go to heaven, but most are already stuck in hell (coin docs and crack out germs especially).
