OK folks. This is not mine, but was posted on another forum, the coin is a 10p piece, location was Devon. I know exactly what made it... do you?

 

[Harvestman]

No.

 

[JonathanD]

No.

Useless, absolutely useless.

The Royal Mint?

 

[Harvestman]

The Royal Mint?

Nah mate, its the print of a loan shark.

 

[JonathanD]

The Royal Mint?

What made it, not who.

 

[British Red]

A bloody great stamping machine?

 

[British Red]

On a more serious note, that looks like multiple overlayed prints - is that right Jon?

That's correct. It is a stonking great thing, all oily and powerful.

Now moving on to the track.

Yeah, I'd say so.

 

[British Red]

Clearly the impression is some chuffing great pad type print, and had the back part been one big print I'd have said chuffing great canid, but now I'm thinking six or seven smaller prints

Yes...no?

The print was made by one individual... but you are thinking along the right lines.

looks like a load of thumb prints ?

Craig.............

 

[Petey]

That's a big cat, though I feel stupid for thinkng it...

and what with it being in Devon, I'd guess it was one of them mythical (or perhaps not so if I'm right) Panthers

actually I've got a story to tell, which is pretty much why I feel confident enough to click "post Reply"

 

[_scorpio_]

too small for a panther surely??

 

[Petey]

doesn't have to be adult

Craig.............

I am going to have to agree with Craig, it looks to small to be a big cat, and to perfect to of been left by any other than a thumb, mabey the notorious thumb cat of nova scotia has been released, i think you can even see a nail imprint in the right lobe of the rear pad, definatly a thumb cat,

 

[JonathanD]

Craig & Southey are spot on, it is a faked big cat print made by what I consider is a human thumb. You can see the nail print in the pad and the overlapping ridges created. The person that took the picture claimed that a big cat was sighted one night and they investigated in daylight and found a long line of these prints. I called BS on it and the evidence points to the print being minutes old too, not to mention, coincidentally blurry. Completely anatomically incorrect, the faker has taken a perfect text book print and tried to replicate it...... badly. The fact that they claim there is a long line of these prints, and the freshness points to the photographer being the faker.
