    Had a coin dealer tell me this joke this weekend...

    Question: "How do you know if a coin dealer is lying?"

    i think a successful coin dealer will be someone who is actively
    looking at thousands of coins a week and has an eye for the best
    ones. they will purchase those fine coins, at probably strong prices,
    but will be able to sell them at 15-20% profit because of the leg
    work they did to find them.

    sorta like mark i suppose.
