Plenty of them have. The simple fact that some think they are right while the experts are wrong especially ones basing it off a picture is at the very least thinking their skills are better. When people say it's wrong when PCGS, CAC/JA, multiple bidders, Legend/Laura ect all of which who have more than likely seen FAR more high end coins than the vast majority posting..... That made me laugh, well played.[/QUOTE]
