Stumped? Puzzled? Don’t know what to do next? Simple. Coin Search. But if you don’t know what to collect, what’s the point? So I have a simple solution. AutoSearch. You get six specially handmade “Catchers”, each with a target date on it. Collect all 12 for a complete spread of all major mint errors and doubled dies. Just toss the coin into the collection box and keep searching. It works itself, nothing to know, nothing to learn. Unless, of course, you want to collect on what you’ve found. Then, it’s workshops, workshops, workshops and then, application and more learning. Ignorance does NOT pay, and it isn’t Bliss, not really. I’ll post my AutoSearch Coin Catchers under the usual “insaneinvestor” slots — in investor’s emporium, on eBay.

See You At The Top!!!

In any case, each and every one of these coins will make you stop and stare and wonder “How in the world did you get here?”
