<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 2836368, member: 112&quot;]Did you read the article I linked ? It proves, beyond a doubt, that info in catalogs, books, etc can be and is wrong. And all of the mistakes made in the Breen books mentioned by baseball in his post are well known and documented.</p><p><br /></p><p>But I&#039;ll give ya one more. Would you say that CNN is a reputable source ? That articles published by them cannot be wrong ? If you believe that, then you should read this article -</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://money.cnn.com/2016/01/08/luxury/dime-auction-2-million/index.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://money.cnn.com/2016/01/08/luxury/dime-auction-2-million/index.html" rel="nofollow">http://money.cnn.com/2016/01/08/luxury/dime-auction-2-million/index.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>In it they claim that there were 2.5 million 1894-S dimes minted. And everybody here, including you I&#039;m assuming, knows that isn&#039;t true.</p><p><br /></p><p>But yet that story and the bad information it was published by CNN. What&#039;s worse, other websites copied the bad information from CNN and then they published it too. One of which I got to retract their bad information and reprint their article with the correct information in it. And that came about as direct result of a thread here on CT.</p><p><br /></p><p>Bottom line, it is a stone cold fact that there is a lot of bad information, completely inaccurate information, about coins in books, articles, and websites. Just because something is published - that does not mean it is true.</p><p><br /></p><p>So how does one determine what is good and what is bad ? Simple, you have to know more than the person than who wrote the bad information. For only then can you recognize that it is bad.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
