Most coins are dug up in some farmer's field as a group of one or two, or a few. Is it really bad to buy it online, preserving it, studying it and finding out as much as possible from it? I also publish my collection online should others want to see it. And I am some sort of criminal for preserving history and sharing it with the public? The biggest problem in the coin world right now is the farmers who dig up the coins. They will scrape the coin carelessly with, say, a knife to see if it is gold or silver. If it isn't, they don't care about it. And I'M the bad one?
