Another thing to note about the fake Morgans from this particular counterfeiter is the absence of cartwheel luster on the coins. We saw this on the group of CC Morgans that a new member purchased last year. https://goccf.com/t/161173&whichpag...=counterfeit

@dave700x That was a really interesting thread, quite the read I must say. Scary to imagine what percentage of coins are counterfeit, in collections and circulating.
In the UK we have an epidemic of fake £1.00 coins circulating about 2.5-5.0% approx of all £1.00 coins, which is a massive amount of money falsely inflating our market. I just wonder how banks and my government make sense of more money in circulation than what has been minted-makes you wonder....

Quote: The number matches PCGS's database, but the coin and slab fonts don't. Definitely a Chinese counterfeit slab and coin.  . . . . .

How does one report this to the member who is compiling the Black Cabinet website?

Encouraging to see fakes being removed promptly.
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website

I reported it last night directly to PCGS as well as ebay, PCGS is aggressive about going after these fools with legal action, not just pulling the auctions. Hope this scammer gets busted.

The sad part is this snake will find a way to move it. That's just reality. Our job is to educate and inform as many people as we can ;)

Good thing this auction was pulled--bids got to over $10K  The seller was de-listed too. But they'll probably be back.
