This is very depressing. I was hoping to pick up a nice slabbed example of this coin at a coin show this year, but now I can't even rely on slabbing as a way to guarantee authenticity. Scary that the fake slab actually has the cert number of a real example.

The cert number is almost always good. The barcode is not, if you compare barcodes. Dead giveaway.

This is getting to be very depressing to look at these. Pretty soon, the fakes will look exactly like the real ones.
