<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 685603, member: 15199"]My thought is that the large number of AT coins are coming from rather small number of manufacturers who have the equipment and the skill set to do AT convincingly. In my mind it takes sophisticated equipment and knowledge to do so at a high level. I am wondering if small branches of organized crime are the initiators. When they can buy high quality chinese copies, fake slabs, and AT them; their initial cost is peanuts compared to what they can go for on the marketplace.</p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
