<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1391054, member: 112"]By all means, post your comments. But I know what the holes are Caleb. The idea that the coins in question are true SMS coins is a theory, it is speculation nothing more. And nobody, even the TPGs, claims otherwise. But the fact remains that the coins are different. As I said long ago in this thread, the coins themselves are their own evidence. They have unique die characteristics and they have a unique finish, and they exist in very small numbers. </p><p><br /></p><p>You wish to claim that because there are no mint records describing these coins as being Special Mint Set coins that they are not SMS coins, that the idea is hype and myth. OK, I have no problem with that. Maybe it is hype and myth. But you claim it as a fact, and it is not a fact, it is an idea, a theory and nothing more. Like I said, we don't <u>know</u> what they are. We only <u>know</u> they are different. So to set them apart from other coins and designate them as being different, the TPGs chose to call them SMS coins. It's a name, a designation, nothing more.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
