You're a new member and don't necessarily know the players, but you've received a response from someone who has been collecting error coins for over 30 years and another who has a strong background in chemistry. Others who answered have demonstrated their knowledge of the minting and die making process over the years in numerous posts. I'm not being critical of your skepticism, but just want to give you some info</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, I'm not denigrating your pro, but just because somebody sells coins doesn't mean they are knowledgable on every area of numismatics. Ask him to explain the minting process or how errors like doubled dies are made.
