I am not a lawyer but at this time am inclined to disagree. I lean towards the 3rd party being successful in obtaining a judgement in their favor...
Does NGC's disclaimer of liability due to mechanical errors actually reach 3rd parties who are damaged due to prima facie relying on NGC's...

Whizzing is an erosion process and while it may increase the distance between design details when measured edge to edge - the positioning of what...
Date position was not my primary concern. It was the spacing of the digits of the date. It can be seen best on the 2nd overlay with alignment...
Pawn Shops are high risk money lenders first - retailers 2nd. If the shop loans fair value adjusted for expected interest - redemption would cost...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] I am not a Morgan Dollar/VAM guy. Not familiar with variations but i lean towards OP's coin is fake.
Insider posted “IMO, this is the kind of conjecture that muddies a thread. No one should care about the "what-ifs." What if a CC die was sent to...
No - A doubled die originates from the die that was used to strike the coin. It is the die that possesses the design doubling characteristics...
All the more reason I lean towards NGC having prior knowledge the coin was fake before examining it. Although not an ordinary occurrence - is it...
All I am suggesting is NGC may have had prior knowledge the coin was counterfeit before examining it. Which would allow them to examine this coin...
This coin was classified as counterfeit because it exhibited an undocumented die gouge? Are we to assume that all 1884-S Morgan die pairings and...
To be honest - I am still stuck on reconciling the difference between a punch vs. a hub. From what I have gathered thus far A Punch is a tool...
The State Quarters - well probably not many people actively putting collections of these together now; but I am fairly sure there are more...
I want to emphasize what I posted in this thread earlier - "Gives me indication it may be possible to identify all 1881-O obverses by mapping...
Yes rotation of the star punch would provide me with a different result. But that really is the whole point. The rotation of the stars may deviate...
I agree the diagnostic is very difficult to see with the coin in hand using a magnifying glass but substitute using an image of the target coin...
Here are CAD tracings of the two different coins in my post above. There is deviation in the positioning of the six design elements relative to...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] Interesting - I am working on the same type of thing using CAD but not just for VAMs but all coin issues. Instead of...
Mont - thanks for the compliment. I don’t mind you using my post for your coin club newsletter but I would advise against it. It is based on a...
