<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Barry Murphy, post: 3313822, member: 79368&quot;]These lines are all in a database. For these Trajan tetradrachm there are maybe a dozen drop down lines with varying descriptions. Sometimes you think you are clicking on one and end up grabbing the one above or below by mistake. It happens occasionally. We catch most before they go out, but sometimes they get out despite our best intentions.</p><p><br /></p><p>Send it back in and we can correct it at no charge.</p><p><br /></p><p>I find these threads amusing. David and I graded and authenticated almost 44000 ancient coins last year. That’s more coins across our desk than any auction house with many more employees. For some reason though people take great pleasure in pointing out our mistakes, yet ignore all the typos, wrong attributions, forgeries etc. that show up in printed catalogs and esales. </p><p><br /></p><p>We do what we can to minimize the errors, but I can guarantee we won’t catch them all. If 50 coins a year get out by mistake with typos on the labels and 43950 go out perfectly, oh well. I can live with those odds. </p><p><br /></p><p>Barry Murphy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
