Ed - What is worrying me is that these people are getting better and better at making these "errors", although I doubt very seriously that it will come to a point where an expert is fooled. Still, acts like this reflect negatively against the hobby and the more information that is bought to light concerning these scams, for that is what they are, the better off the numismatic community will be.

Maybe it is time for an article in "ERRORSCOPE' to be written on this subject to make more people aware of what is happening.
