<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SuperDave, post: 2688353, member: 1892&quot;]I don&#039;t take every word written by Kevin Flynn is Gospel. That&#039;s not how the process works. However, it&#039;s not hard to understand there&#039;s good reason to believe the conclusions of people who have spent <b>years</b> studying a given issue, going through thousands upon thousands of them in order to be able to understand certain generalizations.</p><p><br /></p><p>So if Kevin Flynn tells me - for instance - that 1909 MPL&#039;s were only struck from one obverse, I&#039;m not taking that as the undisputed truth. I&#039;m taking that as the <b>accumulated knowledge as we know it </b><i><b>today</b></i>, coming from someone who&#039;s in a better position via experience than anyone else to be able to make such conclusions. He wasn&#039;t &quot;wrong&quot; when the second die pair came to light; he was just presented with proof that previous knowledge was incomplete. So he refined the knowledge. </p><p><br /></p><p>That&#039;s how science works, and at this level numismatics is science. The same rules apply. It&#039;s just that some people refuse to understand the scientific process.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
