    I cant say I agree compleatly with that statement, GDJMSP. Don't you think you should know your what people with a negeitve boarding or crimianl mind is thinking or doing. I mean if you dont know what a Joe dipper or a cooked job should look like? Or how its done for that matter then you are less knowing and subject to getting scammed. Whats that old saying Keep your you friends close and your enemys closer?

    That's just it Nathan, I do know. I have seen people who can atrificially tone a coin in such a way that it can't be detected. And to be quite honest I'd really rather that the rest of those in the world who are entirely unscrupulous don't know how to do it. There are enough of them that do already.

    Would you also say that a way to print your own undetectable counterfeit money or coins should be published ? I sure wouldn't want to see it become common knowledge.

    Everyone is entitled to their own opinions of course, but those are mine.

    I Agree with you about the SO CALLED UNDETECTABLE coins you are talking about. If it was trully undectable then its something i wouldnt want the mass's to know, thats true, Im talking about the statements about cars and bank acconts and such. I also know much about AT. I personally have tried just about everything I could think of with scrap coins to see the end results. I cant say i have honestly seen any cois that has undetectable doctoring. But I have to say I mst not have seem everything. But I would tend to think once everyoe knows it, that some one will find a way to know if its real of fake. Almost every fake tone job can be found out from what i have seen. I mean Black lights, microscopes, and texture or the coins can pretty much tell you right away. Again want to stress, I agree with you but not 100% in the statement.
