They look like the machine-signed forgeries we've seen coming out of South Florida. If you have them, you'll probably notice that the photo is printed on an inkjet photo printer. Every one I've seen has been.

Yep. Same mass-produced garbage that comes out of Florida.

Those forgeries have been "certed" by GAI, Guaranteed Forensic Authenticators (Stephen Rocchi), and dozens of the "Florida" COAs.

I am getting much better at spotting fakes but still at rookie Lovell. It is so amazing how you guys can spot a fake so easily, a place I hope to get one day lol. How can you tell it is machine done ? Thank you very much for your help and guidance it sucks getting suckered!
