TPG's Grading Fake Coins

Here is a thought. How would anyone know if a fake coin was in a fake slab? I think I've heard that China is now making fake, counterfeit slabs for their counterfeit coins. So if you get a PCGS slab, how would you know it is not a fake slab and coin? Of course things like PCGS would probably be written wrong or mispelled.

I haven't seen a fake PCGS slab yet, but if you search for Trade dollars on ebay you can find them in fake ANACS slabs. It's obvious that they're fake, because a lot of counterfit stuff from China is nowhere close to looking like the real thing. But, how would this prevent someone from the US doing this, making them look right?


You couldn't prevent that anymore than preventing counterfeiting our currency. Crooks have counterfeited just about everything possible here anyway. At least our crooks have higher standards than in China. Making an item one at a time is not the American criminal way. From China I've seen just about anything imaginable. Usually speeled a little different. Such as Dinocell, Duroncell, etc for batteries. My latest favorite was at a flea market where a guy was selling ORIGINAL BLACK FOREST HUNTING KNIVES. Famous German knives for those that don't know. On the blade was clearly engraved MADE IN CHINA.
