Why do so many people not believe this coin is genuine even though the secret service inspected it twice and said its not counterfeit? Sure its the only specimen ever found but is that a legitimate reason to cast so much doubt on it given the circumstances? I know about the guy who claimed he counterfeited it but it was later revealed that he lied. Am I missing something or should these skeptics also discredit the 1944 s steel penny also?

@cer, this earlier CCF thread has a good discussion on this subject:

I completely forgot about posting that on CCF. Thank you, Spence. It's a good read. There's lots of good information on it.
