Fortcollins, are these all fake slabs!? Pretty ridiculous.  Errers and Varietys.

I was ready to sign out for the day, and I saw one more that I just had to post. It's listed as a 1903 Morgan, but is described later (correctly) as a 1903-O Morgan. Here's the seller's description: 1903 O Morgan. Scratches on face have been partially polished away. Very Scarce in any gradeI'm not sure the word "grade" could possibly be applied here. Nor do I think that "partially polished" quite captures the horror. In fact, "Zombie" comes to mind. Here's the seller's obverse photo:  Edited by fortcollins

These are some - let me be politically correct - not quite highest tier TPGs. I've seen all of these slabs before. I saw another one today that was certified by "Mid West Numismatic Grading." That's a new one on me. |

Three times the seller calls the 1799 a 1798. He also says that the date on the 1798 is "askew". Does that mean he knows the date was altered to make it look like a 1799?

GrapeCollects, that's a pretty sad story. :-( Fortcollins, since the slabs are unfortunately real, it must be the unpopular and crappy TPG's that nobody likes I'm assuming? Errers and Varietys.

She gives the date as 1816 - 2002. She must think that since it took 186 years to make the coin it must be worth the price!  |

Not ebay but ecrater: https://www.ecrater.com/p/32908037/...-doubled-die"Our judgement is the coin is doubled in numerous places on the front obverse side.Therefore making it the error issue.Upon your decision to purchase this item.We reserve the right to inform you that we will not accept returns if you find out otherwise..This means we will not accept returns if an expert of your choosing determines it's not a doubled die 1955 Lincoln Wheat cent."$795.00 Edited by joecoin
