Got this idea from a Charles Morgan video. 6-24-22

Lol.
While watching one of the man's videos, he came up with a question concerning when you search to purchase a coin! Here is the question:

What does the coin have to say to you, to purchase that coin?

If a coin ever says something to me, I will immediately seek psychiatric help. OK, I know what you mean... For me it is a combination of history, design and quality.... Not necessarily in that order, and could be different values depending on the coin. Such as, one could have more meaningful history, another perhaps a more appealing design.... but the three factors are what I consider. Cheers, RickO

Thanks guys!
I do realize, this question can be answered in an array of answers. Meaning, there can be many things a coin might be telling you?
I, for one, the coin has to tell me,
"Look how eye appealing I am!" Or "Who cares about the price? Ain't I worth taking home to add to your collection?"
This reminds me of shopping for a dog. Then, when you see him in his cage, looking at you, begging for you to take him home, with those cutest little eyes!

Eye appeal. Period.

"I'm special"
"I couldda been a contender"
"you'll never find a better one"
"the price on my sticker is a big mistake"
"there's a really nice coin under all this dirt"
"I'm only priced like I'm common"
"priced at less than melt, again"

Every coin is unique and they all have a story to tell. Some stories lead me to make an offer.
