Message:: [QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 2048493, member: 112"][USER=24633]@cpm9ball[/USER] - Chris, have you ever seen a coin that you personally were reasonably certain was a fake, and told others it was a fake, only to find out later that you were wrong ? I have. Have you ever seen a coin that NGC and PCGS both said was genuine and slabbed/graded it - that you could positively prove it was a counterfeit ? I have. The point is, when even the TPGs can be wrong, so can anybody else. Or how would you feel if you posted a coin for sale and I, or any other member, came along and said publicly on the forum that it was a fake ? What would your reaction be ? Now I don't know about you, but if I posted a coin for sale and you came along and said it was a fake I sure wouldn't like it. Rather doubt you would either. But that's the situation we get into by doing so. So what do ya do ? Not much you can do really except go with your gut and say what you have to say. Just like you did in this thread. But that's about all you can do. And there are a multitude of reasons as to why that is ALL anyone can do.[/QUOTE]
