Is there a single document expert in the world who has declared the BC to be genuine?
“Is there a single document expert in the world who has declared the BC to be genuine?”
Probably not. But that’s because real document authentification experts like those who are certified by the American Board of Forensic Document Examiners would never do an analysis of a third or fourth generation digitized scan of a document as opposed to an analysis of the original document.
If you wanted to find out if a twenty dollar bill was counterfeit, would you want to have an expert look at a scan of that particular twenty or would you rather that they have the original alleged counterfeit twenty in their hot little hand?
Every generation of reproduction can introduce its own set of artifacts into a copy. The first being, did the person who made the original copy clean the photocopier glass before making the first generation copy?
To the best of my knowledge, only four people have seen the original, long form, vault copy, birth certificate over the last 50 years: two Hawaii Directors of Health, the current Registrar of Vital Statistics for the state of Hawaii and whoever the clerk was who made the two hard copy photocopies of the original.
