Re: I got ripped!!!
<< <i>I bought them at my shop and had no idea they were counterfeitable. Bought them from a walk in woman with her son (about 12 years old my guess) She said he got them from his grandmother when she passed away. I had no inkling at all that they would be fake. >> Based on what I've heard, I'm just guessing that the lady… -
Re: Repatched Sidney Crosby Cup RPA on ebay UPDATE: Possible Brady too
This is absolutely happening in all sports. It is bad because the fakers have generally gotten pretty good with this stuff. My understanding is that the better fakers have gotten good enough that some are actually able take the card apart into two pieces now to remove the old patch and replace it with a new one.

Re: Why do people consign coins to auction houses?
Who can afford to consign coins????? I agree with most of what you posted. But as I get older and desire to spend my time on endeavors that I enjoy, I let others do some of the things I used to do.

Re: Authentic or Reproducation? - 1793 Chain Cent (Answer Revealed in 1st Post)
For what it's worth, that does look like an old school tooling job. Meticulous handwork like that is less common with today's breed of scammers. << <i>Nobody told them that the lettering wears before the chain. >> Maybe that's why the letters got extensively reworked, too? The tooling here is the wild card- it obscures any… -

<< <i>If she had NOT opened up the first couple of rolls, and left everything as OBW, how many here would believe that they were OBW???? >> I was thinkng the very same thing yesterday. If she had never posted here at all and just listed the rolls on eBay as OBWs or any of the individual coins as having come from an OBW… -
Re: Secondary Market 20th ASE prices.........
