You are asumeing he is an expert. The title Forensic Examiner has gone to such outstanding people as the Donald, Morales, Garo and my new all time favorite GFA
You did hit it right on the head though cheap, cheap, cheap. Thats what you get when you pay someone to authenticate hundreds of pieces for $7500
I would love to see him testify it would be like a deer in the headlights
