No doubt, recently placed in the ground and then "ground dug" Just another crook trying to screw the collector.

I am never surprised to the great length they are willing to go. Amateur archaeologist Charles Dawson and the 1912 Piltdown man hoax comes to my mind.

Group portrait of the Piltdown skull being examined. Back row (from left): F. O. Barlow, G. Elliot Smith, Charles Dawson, Arthur Smith Woodward. Front row: A. S. Underwood, Arthur Keith, W. P. Pycraft, and Ray Lankester. Note the portrait of Charles Darwin on the wall. Painting by John Cooke, 1915
