As Jamie and Adam would say.....confirmed!

Good points, Steve - and would not that percentage climb even higher considering the total number of rubber-banded Pafkos that have probably just been discarded over the years due to the horrified reactions of condition-obsessive dealers and collectors who came upon them?
