Regardless of grade or condition they are not easy to find. It wouldn't take long for this one to find a home in an auction :)

Thanks for the bump on this one -- missed it the first time around. Really a cool piece. The counterstamp just adds to the intrigue of the wear of a commemorative.  Good eye, nickelsearcher, on that (very likely) bezel solder.

I am really upset right now. I got the grades of this coin along with another 13 or so from NGC. Almost every singe coin got a horrendous grade!!! This OKLA counterstamp (after even being authenticated by the expert) came back 'Questionable Authenticity'!
Sometimes, grading services just make me mad. Lol.

Bummer. I'm no expert on these, but I've certainly seen a few, and this looks authentic to my eye. Sorry!

I think I will contact the expert again and see what he thinks I should do to get it in a holder. Maybe sending a whole bunch of coins to NGC was a bad decision. PCGS has been pretty good to me, so I think I should stick with them.

Thanks for posting, even with the disappointing outcome at NGC.
PCGS has been on a roller coaster grading Commems as attested by those in the Registry. I don't know about authenticity outcomes though.
Good luck!

I'm glad that PCGS is grading these counter stamped Stone Mountains. It has definitely helped the market for them and you have a guarantee of what you are getting.
