>>20426280>prices of Polish coins and banknotes skyrocketed during covid. It's simply not fun anymore. I rarely was able to add anything to my collection. And now suddenly I needed to bid against speculative investors who didn't even knew what they bought. Also very interesting, I really enjoy reading your thoughts and observations about all this stuff kielbasabro.
>And I hate grading. Grading is cancer to that hobby. It's so tiresome.Me too, when I first started seeing encapsulated coins get more popular when I was a kid i found the whole concept revolting and entirely contrary to the spirit of collecting, and also incompatible with my hands-on approach to enjoying the hobby. I've never owned a single slabbed coin and have no interest in changing that, plus raw coins are usually cheaper anyway.
>16th century looks fun.Hell yeah! There's lots of cool and affordable 17th century coins from your part of Europe to explore which still have a bit of that old-school medieval feel to them.
