#613 Is There Any Real Believers

OK so would there be damage to the gumming ridges once removed

Are we going somewhere with all this?

One word: troll

This is one of the things I love about SCF...educational AND entertaining!!

Not sure what you meant by troll?

too bad I won't be posting anything on the forum in the future with the exception of my certs. Not sure if its immaturity or if its just a bunch of bitter old men waiting to drop dead while pondering the life they wasted and rare stamps they never found but the vibe here just doesn't suit my liking too many douche bags.

Great attitude, goinpostal! A number of the folks posting here have actually tried to be helpful, if honestly trying to check their advice.

Stuckonstamps767, thanks for showing a scan of the backs! By the way, the bottom stamps of your strip have great centering! As cfrphoto mentions, it is useful to compare to known 610's. These look like 610 to me.

On May 6th you posted this...



Then you posted pics of the two stamps you are sending for certs.
Why wouldn't you send in the stamp you posted in the other thread?

This means you now claim to have three very rare stamps...You need to cut the "bitter old men" some slack for being skeptical...

Goinpostal,

Your reply on 5/6/18 was:



It is now 7/1/18. I would just like to see that deal consummated and see the results. I'm sure the audience of readers of this thread would love to see how this ends, hopefully with a nice cert for you, and a bill for Don. But unless we hear otherwise, people will continue to doubt your comments. Good luck, and please keep us informed, good or bad cert.

Partime,
You are hoping for a bill for me?????
Don

A bill or redemption, either one as long as we close out this issue. I'm rooting for Don!

I respectfully request that this thread be interred at sunset.

It's not just stamps, guys....we run into numismatic dreamers every day of the week. Countless hours are spent on the phone with treasure hunters who just " found" a 1943 copper cent. If I had a nickel for every one of those calls I fielded, I actually would be well on my way to buying a genuine 1943 copper cent- lol....seriously though, it's human nature to want to believe that you struck gold. We all know the end result of this scenario because we have seen it play out so many times, and it's always a hard pill to swallow for the would-be lottery winner.

Who would you send it in to? Cause it seems rather risky to send a rare stamp in for cert. Isn't there a way to have it backed by a reputable stamp collectors? So if not one sole believes it to be true that another stamp collector and a new one at that posses this rare stamp how do you trust one that could just swap it out and say it was a 610 everyone laughs and the thief who's opinion is the final say moves on with his new trophy so to speak. I have a collection that belonged to a wealthy family from back in the civil war days. They started Milton national Bank,owned oil fields,funded Warner Bros,so on and so on. Does the name Bull,Greene,Zita, Miner ring a bell. Kentucky to Newport Beach CA.
