[QUOTE="calcol, post: 4711339, member: 77639"]What's really needed is for all submissions sent in above the economy/modern level to be scanned into a shareable database. All scans of new submissions would be automatically compared to the database images. Any matches would be examined carefully. The database would need to be shareable among TPGs. This would require setting-up an independent NPO that is in charge of the database, receives new scans, and reports back any matches. A NPO is necessary to set scanning standards, to set standards for TPGs eligible to participate, and to avoid collusion charges. The database should not be made public (it could be used for templates by counterfeiters). This plus "smart slabs", which can't be duplicated, would drastically curtail counterfeiting for coins at this value level. Cal[/QUOTE]
