I seen this ad for APMEX, and thought the grade of the Morgan dollar seemed high.

I checked the Cert number on the PCGS site, and found this.

*If you look at the full cert. number (7300.63/24882274) they forget to change the grade there.

Why wouldn't they just use a real MS-67 coin, instead of going through the trouble of photoshopping a MS-63 Slab.

Haha! I love it! You'd think they would have just blurred out the cert number fully.

You can see the 7 of MS-67 does not match the size and font of the other numbers on the label. How hard could it have been for them to find a picture of an actual MS-67 1921-S Morgan dollar?

A 10 year old could photoshop better than that one.

They may not have had a 67 in stock when they posted the ad. Being APMEX, it does not bother me and actually might hurt them. Either way, they trade certified Morgans/Peace as commodities and do deliver what you order.

hahaha.

The 7 looks copy-pasted from a different slab, not with a great success.
