    That's about the size of it.

    You'll never hear someone offer a bad coin or buy a good one.

    DRECK is a coin that the dealer has packed and unpacked more than thirty times....and has never even been looked at by a serious collector.

    ugly, no eye appeal, dead series, overgraded, too expensive..............like an old cat in the humane shelter with a broken tail and one eye. Except, you cant just put the coin out of its misery.

    It is unfortunately, a rather vulgar term.

    I would much prefer the word Dregs be

    used instead. In any event, the term has

    been explained, clarified and reclarified

    more times then butter and many times

    over in this thread.

    so basically what you are saying, is that there is "dreck", & then there is "legendary dreck"?
