    So i'm assuming from this statement that the cartouche is good?

    I appreciate you guys taking the time to look.

    Yes, Rick, I remember your lonely fight at the time. Initially, many of us just regarded it as yet another bad fake in a long line of them. The real impetus for GCAicon was the revelation that the faker was a GCA member. Then we had to nail it down totally. The Association had a lot at risk and had to get it right, so we were as thorough as we could get. The same caution applied in our exposure of that fake M1C with the forged documents from a notorious crook down South. We spent months accumulating evidence to prove conclusively what we knew to be true.
    Real men measure once and cut.

    Interesting. You guys have done a great service to collectors in doing what you can to expose the fakers out there. It is appreciated.
