<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Carthago, post: 2277263, member: 76111&quot;]Hoth - I&#039;ve actually pondered the same thing about Sear.&nbsp; I&#039;ve only used his services 2 times, one coin was confirmed fake.&nbsp; I was pretty sure it was fake and was fighting with an incompetent European auction house that sold it to me to refund my money and they wouldn&#039;t accept NGC&#039;s opinion on authenticity. </p><p><br /></p><p>The answer is buying from reputable dealers.&nbsp;&nbsp; There are plenty.&nbsp; Yes they do make mistakes, but I promise you that David Sear can and probably has made mistakes (I don&#039;t have any specific examples but it is the nature of ancients).&nbsp; If you buy from a reputable source and the coin turns out to be fake, you will get a refund.&nbsp; You will also minimize the chance of buying a fake in the first place.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
