If I'm reading that right, it sounds like ICG would be on the hook for it.

That's correct. If nobody reports it, it just gets bought and sold back and forth until someone like afcop13 catches it. Great catch!

I agree, obvious 1917. It seems a lot of TPG's have trouble classifying Type 1's as 1916 or 1917, I've seen a fair amount of 1917's in 1916 slabs.

On SLQ's in this grade level, you won't. You have to depend on diagnostics to ID.

Good to see that example still going to good use. :-) Anyways, we need as many people as possible to report it before some one snags it as a BIN. At that point, the buyer is pretty much hosed since we cant see who it is until feedback is left.

I'm almost positive this is the same example that I saw several months ago. It was also on ebay, and I recall it up for sale by Coinplus inc. I have a thread here about that one somewhere. Anyone else remember? The listing was removed after several folks reported it, but who knows what happened then.

I found the thread I posted on collectors universe. I can't post the link, but it's thread id 782974.

Anyways, here is a picture of the one that was being sold then. Do you guys think it's the same coin?

I do think it's the same coin. It's like the hot potato game. Get it out of your hands before it burns you!

If that is a 16, I have 2 or 3 1916 SLQs to buy tomorrow. Alas it is not.


Yeah, and the one I just sent to CWB for winning my contest would be a 16 too!

I wish it were a 16 - cause I'd have 28 of them. LOL. I've accumulated a STACK of 17's in search of a 16 via junk lots.

an Johnny I remember that thread and thought it may be the same one too. I have a feeling someone knows they are selling a 17 by now.

unfortunately it bid and sold for $827.00! Someone just got taken for about $822.00. :-( Very sad.
