Albert Pillar of the Community United States 1915 Posts	Posted 06/17/2026 01:59 am I've never used Chat gpt, but I was contacted by someone that does. Apparently a coin picture may be submitted. The coin is an authentic $5 gold piece dated 1882, it was identified as a liberty head V nickel dated 1882. We know that cannot be because 1883 was the first year. So it was suggested to be some sort of fantasy, token or replica. And it was not an official US minted coin at all. I suggested to my contact that the information given was not correct and a better method of inquiry should be used. Report this Post to the Staff

J.R.R. Tolkien, The Hobbit To me, that sums up AI identification. If you ask AI to find something, it will, but in most cases what it finds is not correct. As for using AI for authentication... that doesn't even dignify a response. Edited by David Graham 06/22/2026 4:42 pm Report this Post to the Staff
