[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 3131641, member: 112"]Tommy - What a lot of collectors don't realize is that when it comes to stuff like you are talking there are differing opinions - even among the "experts".

So, if they are experts, how can that be the case ? Well, that is the question, and the answer, at the same time. And it's not just in numismatics that that this condition, this issue, exist.
