<p>[QUOTE="cplradar, post: 7409182, member: 108985"]There is just no end to this and I am sure there are lots of counterfeit coins of this quality on the market. There is no way that even a moderately educated coin collector can know that such an obscure deviation of a fake from a variety analysis makes the coin counterfeit. There will always be a market for this. The ONLY protection, and which is a repetition of what I have been saying all along, is that the dealers and auction houses have to get SERIOUS about identification databases, coin tracking and pedigree. Every coin a dealer purchases needs to be analyzed for pedigree and determined that it has not been stolen. It needs to IDs digitally and tracked. That will largely protect people from counterfeits. The grading companies are not doing variety analysis unless you pay for it. This will slip past them every time. Bet on it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
