It certainly does not inspire confidence. Is their ability to authenticate equal to the quality of their slabbing?

then again, maybe the foam is cut to perfectly match the "slight rim damage".

272150163263Is the above coin even authentic? $425 would be a lot of money for a replica.

It's ok , they are using that newly invented Styrofoam that in the coarse of a few months contours perfectly around the coin.

Is it even TPG when the same company that graded it is selling it? Shouldn't it be second party grading?

So does "very detailed" mean scrubbed with a brillo pad?

With SGS (Abon Coin) out of business perhaps there is some basement slabber market share up for grabs.
