Default Re: Stamp opinions? real/fake?

couple ways to normally identify the fake 837's. 1. 837's were made in specific date batches and those few dates are pretty well known if you dig around. The amateur's normally don't even check the date, so their dead right there, forget about what the stamp looks like at that point. 2. As indicated, The 7 is normally the give away, original's have a certain "swale" to it, kinda pushed out on the side, not easily duplicated, but I am sure somebody will get it right. My advice, if you want a real one, pony up the required cash and by from a reputable guy who will guarantee authenticity
