<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Carausius, post: 2722242, member: 76440&quot;]Hi</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Part of that solution is having a well educated collecting community that recognizes tooling.&nbsp; Many do not recognize a tooled coin. I&#039;ve seen tooled coins posted on CT with great pride, where the posters clearly have no idea.&nbsp; I&#039;ll not say anything in those circumstances, because I don&#039;t want to offend or insult.&nbsp; It is incumbent on us to learn what an EF coin of a particular series should look like, in it&#039;s natural state,&nbsp; before buying one for ourselves.&nbsp; Look at books, websites and catalogues. Compare before buying.&nbsp; Ask yourself, &quot;Does the hair look correct? Should the eyes look this way?&quot;&nbsp; and compare to actual, die-matched examples in answering those questions before you buy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
