Wornslick Pillar of the Community United States 1304 Posts	Posted 10/08/2013 9:06 pm The next Morgan on my buy list is the 1893P Morgan. I know that the 1893S is counterfeited a lot but what about the 1893P? Is this a coin I should be looking into slabbed? Thanks in advance. Report this Post to the Staff

Nathancrh1 Pillar of the Community Canada 785 Posts	Posted 10/08/2013 10:04 pm If you have doubts about authenticity on any high grade or rare coins then buying slabed coins from a well known dealer is your safest bet as slabs have also been faked. (Although that is much less likely) Report this Post to the Staff
Wornslick Pillar of the Community United States 1304 Posts	Posted 10/09/2013 7:00 pm Thanks Nathancrh1, I will most likely buy this one slabbed. I just didn't know if it is as highly counterfeited as the 1893-S, due to its low mintage. Report this Post to the Staff
basebal21 Bedrock of the Community 13014 Posts	Posted 10/09/2013 7:24 pm Probably not as much as the S because of its lower value but pretty much everything is counterfeited to some extent. I bet you could find a bunch that had an S mint mark added to them. Report this Post to the Staff

I'd call it a "healthy skepticism of anything raw" coin, and a greater likelihood of seeing a fake than more-common issues. Report this Post to the Staff

Its the 2nd or 3rd most valuable P mint if I remember correctly. I cant help be think that could be a sleeper and one day the P and S value gap could close some as that get tried with more and more of them. Report this Post to the Staff
