M-C-6In 1980, a Danish ten-øre coin minted in 1747 was sold at auction for $8,000. Eleanor Bixby owns another Danish ten-øre coin minted in 1747. When she puts it on the market next week, it will fetch a price over $18,000.
Which of the following, if true, would most weaken the conclusion drawn above?

ACE都是支持,
B和D都是削弱,但都有缺陷,为什么D优于B?
B)如果EB拥有的硬币是四个里面的一个,支持,不是四个里面的一个削弱
D)如果1986年前没有发现过其他的coin in question,在1986年前就存在一枚,削弱,但也无法排除1986年前还存在其他一样的coin in question. |
