Message:: [QUOTE="huntsman53, post: 171668, member: 1242"]I understand the skepticism that everyone would have concerning the authenticity of the coin! I am not skeptical of the Coin Dealer and neither would any of you, if you actually knew Dave! Dave is an extremely honest and honorable person and Coin Dealer. Also, Dave was selling the coin for his Father-In-Law and made no claims that the coin was authentic. He named the Coin Dealers that had looked at the coin and that he and they believe that the coin is authentic. The other named Coin Dealers that looked at the coin, have many, many years of experience and a wealth of knowledge about coins and counterfeits. To expand on the great pont that Bill (foundinrolls) made in answering Treashunt's post and query "In addition, we find it amazing that this could have gone undiscovered for 64 Years", I will offer this additional information! The first 1914/3-D Buffalo Nickel Variety was not found or at least not submitted for authenticity until the year 2000 which is 86 years after the coin was minted. If it were not for the Coin Collecting craze created by the State Quarters, the 1914/3-D Buffalo Nickel and many other Varieties and Errors may have went another decade or two before being discovered!
