>I really like the slab type holders

I still hate those f'in things and own 0 slabs, but that's the direction the tide of the hobby is flowing so I find my recalcitrance slowly ebbing toward surrender. You've got ~15 years on me so by then I may well find myself having joined you over on the Dark Side lol.

>Usually I allow the sale to go through because the price isn't very high and it gets the problem item out of circulation

I think the worst I've been taken on a coin was $70 so nothing to loose sleep over, I kept them all. Been scammed on artifacts for upwards of $400 (god-damned camera tricks, immediately obvious fakes in-hand) though so I got my rightful refunds for those. Might seem silly or cuckish to eat the coin losses but if you don't take the punishment and internalize blame you won't really learn. Things like that tablet or a few other different major scores each alone more than pay for all the fakes multiple times over so I'm not complaining, a good education isn't free but the expertise you build pays dividends forever.

What are you suspicious of regarding the token, that it's a no-town which might not be from CO as stated in the book or that the Ferrari's stamp may have been added later?
