[QUOTE="Drusus, post: 545534, member: 6370"]Then the question is, how many slipped through, how many out there spent thousands for a rare coin that was well published as fake but they sold anyway because it slipped through. This is not a thread bashing CNG...this holds true for all sellers of ancients...they are human...they make mistakes...and they are not in the business of taking a loss either....so sometimes they might let it go and hope it doesnt get caught. The denarius was found before it was sold...the Gold Stater wasnt and the stater was denounced as fake well before the sale....and now it is listed on coin archives as an authenitic coin. My main and only point is, dont ever let trust lull you into thinking that seller wont sell you a fake or that you dont have to excersize due dilegence...either by accident or otherwise they just might sell you a fake.
