Page 3, June 20 @Capt says he mailed a check. Too bad, since there's no recourse like filing a cc or PayPal dispute.

Over the past few weeks I have taken the coin to several reputable coin shops I know well and some I don't know just to get a gauge on what the reaction is when I show them.

The reaction is almost identical word for word. Like "Wow" this is an amazing piece! I ask does it look legit? Not one single shop said no. They said it was an authentic multi struck coin. Going as far as showing every detail why it is legit.

Then..... I toss the bodybag from PCGS on the counter and say it is a counterfeit according to PCGS.

One guy offered me 1k cash even after I showed the body bag. The offer still stands today, I kept it and plan on keeping it for now.

All the coin shops numismatic staff in a nutshell said PCGS messed up or just assumed it was and put counterfeit because I am a nobody to them and for their own political policies protection didn't really give it a good assessment, took the money. They said PCGS especially makes a lot of mistakes and bad calls. They favor the loyalists.

I am going to go to one more shop about an hour away to someone who's specialty is mint errors and see what his conclusion is.

All the shops but 2 were all PCGS authorized dealers or reputable experts in numismatics.

Once I contact Jon Sullivan and set up a time to meet him I will post his conclusion on it.

Excellent that you will be talking with Jon Sullivan. He is exactly who you need to ask about it, as he will have the answers you are looking for. If you do decide to part with it I'd love to have it in my counterfeit collection as I don't have a Silverstone yet.

I will definitely keep everyone updated. If it does end up being a counterfeit Silverstone it'll be the first one in my collection. If it turns out to be authentic it'll go to NGC this time and be the first multi struck quarter in my collection.

Real or fake, I remain curious how the last strike gets two different curves at the rim.

@CaptJeffWorthFL, Sorry for the unfortunate news, like many in this community, I was hoping the best for you! IMO the "$400 price tag was also a hint. Multi-Strikes with that much spacing between strikes are rarely seen and will go for high premiums, $3,000-$5000 at least on a Statehood Quarter. Sure there are are plenty of 3x-18x struck coins though most just have close spaced ring strikes. I've owned a few 4x statehood 25c pieces but not with Eye Appeal like this. IMO keep it as a reminder.

Looking at the seller's auction page and noticing he is holding this piece with his hands!! considering he is a big time seller with over 158k+ selling transactions wouldn't you think he'd be careful not to handle it this way if he really felt it is ligit? just make's me wonder.
