Eric,
then I'm confused, why did you post this:
"Bill thank you! You are right! You all convinced me its a bad fake!! A lousy forgery! Case closed!! Now, I thank you as always for your most valuable and unbiased opinions!"
Perhaps I mistook your words and they were meant as sarcastic.
There is a emoticon for that -
Sorry if I offended you.
But the case is still not the same.
