BECKER/ROSA COUNTERFEITS

  Regarding Bob Leonard's commends on the "Becker"
  counterfeits last week, Gene Anderson writes: "Let me say
  that I am in complete agreement with Bob Leonard's belief
  that the "Becker" counterfeit I inquired about a couple of
  weeks ago was a Peter Rosa production.  I had read the
  book "Classical Deception", and my correspondence with
  author Wayne Sayles this past summer tended to support
  that idea. I was hoping to find proof regarding this item.
  Perhaps someone out there has some old Rosa catalogs or
  advertisements that would shed the light of certainty on the
  matter. For clarification, the name Becker is not on the edge
  of either the obverse or reverse. It is on the blank side of each
  uniface piece."
