<p>[QUOTE="Severus Alexander, post: 3236049, member: 84744"][USER=76086]@Ken Dorney[/USER], you're right, this wasn't clear from the earlier discussion. I originally bought it from Savoca, and pointed them to this very thread containing Victor Clark's expert opinion. I had a discussion with them about what might be done to prevent the coin from coming back on the market. They said there wasn't anything they could do, as they had to send it back to the consignor undamaged. At no point did they suggest the coin might be genuine, but seemed to fully accept that it was a fake.</p><p><br /></p><p>Maybe they were just following the policy that the customer is always right, and have some really good reason for supposing that Victor is wrong. Or maybe the coin came back through their system from the same consignor and it wasn't picked up that it was the same coin. In other words, I still think we should give them the benefit of the doubt... but I must say that the possible scenarios in which this turns out to be good judgement or an honest mistake are dwindling.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
