It takes some guts to admit a mistake.

 I'm such a newbie that I feel like what I have to learn is endless -- and apparently I'm right. With this hobby we never stop learning. I agree with amida17 -- just copy what you wrote here and PM him. Then you'll know you've done your best. Thanks for posting this. It was like a breath of fresh air after all the months of debates and name-calling on the news.

It's a good thing to apologize after you've been proven wrong instead of just ignoring it or continuing to believe the proven fact. Good for you

BTW ... I've seen some of those meandering mintmarks on the 1921-S Buffs. My personal favorite is the 1916-D Buffalo with the D mintmark that's partially embedded in the C of CENTS.

Very good of you to apologize.
I am pretty sure I have responded to post where I have given the wrong answer .. I guess that is all part of our learning process. I also think it does cause a lot of bad feelings. Makes people not want to read or respond to your post .. to avoid getting bad information or confrontation.
I have also seen many times where forum experts have posted their opinion that a coin is fake .. when it turns out authentic.
IMO .. everyone will get a fact wrong and make a wrong post .. how you handled this one .. should be a example for all of us.

Don't make me out to be too much of a saint. The argument I was having with him initially had nothing to do with his 1921-S, and I'd probably do THAT part of it all over again. I was simply dead wrong when I brought his 21-S into the fray and implied it was a fake.
