<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cringely, post: 1009487, member: 22271&quot;]There&#039;s an extremely good chance. I bought (and luckily was able to return) a counterfeit VF-30 1795 Capped Bust dollar that was good enough to fool not only the dealer who sold it to me, but 2 of the other 4 dealers I showed it to before getting my money back. Had it not been a reputable dealer and had I not sent the coin to be certified, I would have been out thousands of dollars.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>That episode has changed how I buy coins. Now, I won&#039;t give into an impulse to buy what appears to be a great deal unless the coin is certified or I know the dealer or individual <i><b>very</b></i> well (and have the ability to return the coin if it turns out to be a Chinese fake.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
