Who does the "our satisfaction" refer to Gottlieb? I sincerely question the statement that Fred Stephens is "terribly confused". This is turning into a "where is the pea" thread. In my opinion YOU have to prove statements, not what you propose...that others prove whatever you say is incorrect. I have seen that movie before along with other collectors and that is not the way it's done.
The main problem you are having, in my own personal opinion, is that you are moving all over the board with items (rings, tunics, daggers,etc) and that severely hampers anyone's ability to want to take your "this is conclusive proof and the end of the story" proclamations seriously. I think that this is the reason your statements are routinely hammered on the different forums. Your credibility and ethics have wounded you in all these area's, not this one thread. This is a supportable fact and not a personal statement of my own creation. Good luck...
