<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GoldCoinLover, post: 418538, member: 4336&quot;]Great thread!</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve always wanted to become an expert gold authenticator. Especially on gold coinage.</p><p>I took an ANA Class, grading conservation and authentication with Brian Silliman at the phoenix pre semeniar show. It was only an 8 hour class of counterfeit detection, but I got to see hands on tons of fake gold coins. i also already knew a bit about counterfeit detection beforehand.</p><p><br /></p><p>That $5 gold piece is pretty deceptive, where you have circles over the fields of the coin on some of them I cannot see what you are referring to. Are you referreing to depressions on some of them, because I can&#039;t see them..</p><p><br /></p><p>I also thought that the toolmarks on the neck of the indian was further to the right of the neck, interesting.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, thanks for the great post.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
