<p>[QUOTE="Mike Thornton, post: 4862052, member: 105289"]I thought the OP's question was interesting and they asked for what "our" definition was. Said we'd debate the definitions later. Well, I guess TVO missed that part and started the debate. I agree, he seems to be reasonable but also argues both sides of a statement. The conversation would have been better suited for a Debate Forum. Wonder if he was the Captain of the Debate Club in school and knocking the dust off his skills. Can't and wouldn't knock keeping ones tools sharp.</p><p><br /></p><p>I'd rather talk about the coins, not debate the terms numismatists use to describe them. I also don't think we need to debate the "legal" definition of counterfeit, we know what a counterfeit is. (A famous politician once said "I can't define obscene for you but I know it when I see it."), counterfeit is one of those terms. Unless one of us plans to counterfeit coins, expects to be arrested and is planning the defense now. Perhaps TVO is trolling for future clients?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
