So what if they claim the coin is a fake but is actually a genuine coin with striking characteristics that they are not aware of? How many grading services can properly diagnose, say, a weak strike 1908 Indian $2.50 which Breen notes is plagued by striking problems on the eagle? Or what if the fake is an electrotype that was made in the 1800s? Or a contemporary counterfeit 1861 3-cent piece which Breen notes was made in sizable quantities?

Here's the preceding paragraph before the one I quoted a few posts ago:

At ANACS, any coin that we believe may be counterfeit or altered may be returned to the customer with a note calling the piece “Questionable Authenticity.” This would mean we are not absolutely certain the coin is a counterfeit, but we believe it is. Before we ever say a coin is absolutely counterfeit or altered, we send it to renowned experts who offer their opinion.

I think that should answer your question.
