When you and your buddies :yack::yack::yack: become God's Gift to coin authenticators, you might have a point worth noting. Some things to think about based on EXPERIENCE. 1. Some coins exist that the best in the business cannot prove one way or the other and top experts disagree on them. 2. Modern TPGS do not take as long as might be needed (in some cases over a year) to reach a decision they can stand by in court. 3.
