[QUOTE="Numismat, post: 1290740, member: 15019"]I learned a few things too, but I still would not buy any such coins with denticle overlap, even if they are slabbed. An expert in this field some of you may be familiar with, Robert Gurney, had sent in two known and documented counterfeits of Spanish colonial dollars to NGC and both were slabbed as genuine. He also purchased a third NGC slabbed coin which was also a known contemporary counterfeit. The fact that some of these get past TGP's is enough to warrant hypervigilant scrutiny when looking at such coins.[/QUOTE]
