Update on Attic Dek in Gemini Auction?

I was wondering if anyone had any followup on the Dekadrachm that was pulled from the March Gemini auction. Here's the original thread: linky

Altho my interests are elsewhere, ever since I read Chester Starr's book I've been fascinated with the series and was disappointed that what appeared to be a wonderful dek was deemed to be a fake. I just ran across the catalog and wondered if anyone had heard anything subsequently about it. Thanks!

    Here's a couple threads on the problems with that coin. I don't know if you have to be a member of the Yahoo group to see the first thread or not.
