d23, I agree with you...., but for my own and different reasons... there are other signs..
WHY do you think the coin has been cleaned?

I do not know if the coin is cleaned or not (didn't refer to cleaning at all) Yes there are other factors and a bunch of red flags pop up. Another one is the surface area around the head as there appears to be pit marks (pot metal marks)which I have seen on other fake coins. Quick story - I bought a 25 coin in good faith and it turned out to be a fake, I got lucky in 2 ways, 1- I got my money back, 2- I learned a good lesson and was able to study that coin.  |

Wow this Topic is really interesting. I started a silver dollar collection months ago and I got 1935 to 1939 Ms63-ms64 ICCS certified already... now I'm looking for big key dates 1945 to 1948.
Any suggestion where should I buy those coin ? what I need to looking for ? any tips ?
Thanks a lot!

The coolector (died) are a very rich man(millions €)im not think that his are criminal;-) im think that you are buy this canadians coin as authentic.The complete canadian modern gold from this collection I have fuse/melt..her modern canadian gold are only gold value. I have buy this from you toughter in a complete stock. my possibility is see the bill ( wo collector have buy this)and return too the toughter and calculate catalog value.im think in the toughter is equal/alike, and his retain this coins ( money not are important) i not have fraudolent intention,otherwise not have publicated this coin in the expert forum....Not sell to ebay,not fear;-) Personality, I'm find the quality its not so bad, nice color, exact weight,sharpness counterfeits ,...on the other italian, and austrian fakes are also good quality.....   i will let it know in the forum in 3-4 weeks news. I coin them not retourn they will sold coin only as real sold if they it are.i not sell as fakes/voucher copy, there I destroy them rather and allow to melt them im hope that all can understeand my english.... best regards |

You might need 1 more post. I don't know if it increments when you get 50, or when you get past 50.

DVCollector, on page 1 the picture you submitted of the certified 1948 dollar by PCGS do you happen to recall what grade they graded it as? Tanks |

brutuss, I've only sent one coin in to be authenticated in my life. It was a 1795 US cent which I bought from a very reputable dealer. I took it into my local coin shop for evaluation. The dealer put on his loupe and spotted some scratches in the field which he thought might be considered graffiti, and that I should send it to ANACS. Sure enough, it came back graffiti. It graded VF (a step higher than what I bought it at)and was authentic, but I was disappointed and sent it back for a refund.
Moral of the story: for a coin as valuable as a 1948 Canadian dollar, pay the man to get it graded and authenticated.
