    I keep wondering when the flood of counterfeits will have an impact on the perception of the hobby. Most coins won’t have a provenance and some fakes have already fooled the TPGs. At some point they will be nearly indistinguishable aside from iron clad provenance.

    Perhaps the day will come when coins will be worth their metal only unless they have provenance?

    There are more fakes of ancient silver coins than real ones. Most people can't tell the difference, including many experts. There's still a robust market for them.

    True, and those can be easier to fake all things considered. But I imagine it depresses the pricing.
