I wonder if that 133mm specimen is the same as a similar sized one at the
last COA convention (2001).  There was a 130mm+ specimen that was a fake so
well made you really couldn't tell with the naked eye.  My suspecions were
aroused by the size (of course) and the incredible condition of the shell.
I wish now I had checked the price - but it was on the second day of the
bourse and I would have been hard pressed to buy a coke and hamburger at
McDonalds.
