I'm glad NGC didn't pull the images when they pulled the certification.

Scary for sure. I too confirm all varieties as best I can. TPG's need to up their game, they are falling short! They need to start weighing all coins, confirm varieties, include XRF testing, and specific gravity. An authentic slab just meens that a "seasoned expert" has taken 10 seconds to look at a coin and declare grade and authenticity with little or no scientific evidence to verify that the coin is what they think it is. The people grading coins are good but too many mistakes are being made!

I'm sorry to see that NGC has now removed the images from the verification page.

I'm still of the belief that the Chinese & their fakes are going to destroy the dwindling hobby of collecting coins.
