<p>[QUOTE=&quot;LostDutchman, post: 845177, member: 16994&quot;]Ok, This is my hypothetical. Take an 1880 S Morgan silver dollar and study it for as long as you would like... say it&#039;s graded MS64 by NGC and it&#039;s blast white like a lot of 80 S&#039;s are for arguments sake. Then take this coin and throw it in a pile of 1,000 NGC MS64 1880 S Morgan silver dollars mix it up. Could you pick your own coin out again? I couldn&#039;t. No way. I&#039;m sure you would end up with a hand full of coins that are very very similar even if you memorized the nicks and hits of your coin and would have to guess as to which one is yours... you might be right, you might not be. </p><p><br /></p><p>NGC has graded more then 48,000 coins at that level. </p><p><br /></p><p>My point is that it just takes 2 different coins to show up with the same fingerprint for this whole thing to be a wash. </p><p><br /></p><p>Just how sensitive are the machines??? I haven&#039;t seen anything besides a comment by Don Willis to my question that suggest that they have scanned &quot;Tens of thousands&quot; of coins... </p><p><br /></p><p>did any of them show up the same when they shouldn&#039;t have? </p><p><br /></p><p>When you are going to use a technology that has the possibility of flagging a coin as stolen these are things that need to be addressed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
