These coins were graded 3 yrs ago going by what APCGS says on there website.


This fact only suggests that no one is buying them.

Not being able to turn over a stock item in 3 years speaks for itself.

Hey Sap, These coins were graded 3 yrs ago going by what APCGS says on there website. They say that the first 2 numbers of any slab is the year that the coin was slabbed so that means that these were done in 2011. Plus it is obvious when you click on these that they are an "old slab" compared to what they use today. They need to do something to swap from old slabs to the new slabs as it has obviously affected there reputation. On the other hand, maybe the person that is purchasing the company might actually do something?


By affecting their reputation, I assume you mean they've become more easily confused with PCGS slabs, look how similar the holders look:

I'm surprised they didn't try to make the labels similar too.

Within 12h of reporting it the auction is down.

...and right back up again. This time, no space between A and PCGS in the title, but still listed as "Certification: PCGS & CAC" in the description, as well as "A PCGS" remaining in the verbiage.

Did you see the prices, there scary. You won't see me EVER buy gold coins for that.
Wow, look at how nice that coin in the middle is.... I wouldn't say no to that :)
I don't see a problem with what the slabs look like, there's really not much of a choice in designs I guess unless they make some kind of rocket slab that flys into peoples hands. There 1000 times better then these old slabs that they have used. Honestly, when you look at the two,apcgs v pcgs they are completely different with there labels, front and back

Image that I just pinched off ebay. If you can't tell the difference there's something wrong :)
