[QUOTE="Insider, post: 2867807, member: 24314"]bkstyl, posted: "With this fooling so many people and after getting the PCGS results, I thought posting here and getting feedback from [B][COLOR=#ff0000]more experienced people[/COLOR][/B] would prove to be a teachable moment for me and maybe help others in the process." You must be a very new collector. Something you should consider in the future: While these online chat boards a populated with some very [B]experienced[/B] collectors and dealers, experience alone measured as time-in-the-business, the number of collections you have assembled, chat room friends, etc means absolutely nothing. Experience gets you a "name" and a following. Many of the folks at PCGS have the [B]experience[/B] to call themselves authenticators. I'll bet few of us here do. So, If you want a second opinion from that given by a major TPGS, YOU SEND YOUR COIN TO ONE OF THE OTHER THREE! :D[/QUOTE]
