<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 1906043, member: 19463"]I don't think it would have gone for more. The buyer and one underbidder agreed that their trusted expert was right. I would rather have a photo certificate signed by David Vagi than a slab inscribed NGC even if that is the same thing. I would absolutely love to have consensus opinions of a half dozen experts of my choice but I am not willing to pay for $50 x 6 for opinions about my $300 'difficult' coin. If I did this and the results came back 4 good and 2 fake, would I feel better? Hardly. If 2 good and 4 fake, would I destroy it? Nope.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
