leonYou make a few good points....here are a few others...
1. Seller is selling a poor fake E98 Old Put. NO green fronts have ever been seen and the font on back is horrible.
2. No Close stamp has ever been seen in black nor has that font been seen. (that I am aware of)
3. I am waiting to see the other 7....and my guess is they will all look similar...but that is only a guess until we see them. Another guess....we won't see them = red flag. If we do see them and they are ALL different looking then I guess we have 8 unknown ones all of the sudden found. Wow...that's great.
4. Ohio- the hotbed of fakes
5. If that Close stamp WERE real it would sell for at least 2.5x of the asking price...and I can almost guarantee more as it would only be the 2nd known.
6. I am going to go out on a limb and say SGC will review this and un-holder it.
I guess with all of those things in question it could still be real..... I have never said "100%" on purpose....
