edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 09/22/2017 4:13 pm Gimme a break I don't think this is a fake. On the PCGS website under my account/submission, it says "counterfeit." I immediately called them to find out what happened, and concerned they might crack it out and body bag it, but the lady said they would leave it in the original holder......I HOPE. I'm assumed it didn't cross, and the charge to my credit card bears that out....but COUNTERFEIT? Edited by edweather 09/22/2017 4:16 pm Report this Post to the Staff

westernsky Pillar of the Community United States 7620 Posts	Posted 09/22/2017 4:18 pm The coin looks genuine, however, the toning might be a little bit questionable. Report this Post to the Staff
edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 09/22/2017 4:54 pm @Crazyb0....now that's a fake True, and yes, maybe they think it's questionable color. I've seen other high quality Ikes with similar toning, plus ANACS gave it a straight grade. Oh well. I just hope they return it in the original holder.

UltraRant Pillar of the Community Norway 1358 Posts	Posted 09/22/2017 7:53 pm The Chinese get better and better... Apart from the toning, which may be the issue here, the coin looks very genuine to me. But artificial toning on a genuine coin doesn't make the coin a counterfeit...

edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 09/22/2017 8:07 pm I'm guessing a typo............I hope ...and you're right, artificial toning doesn't make it counterfeit Report this Post to the Staff

Would be faster to just pay them directly for their lawyers costs and skip all the steps of them being awarded the fees when the suit is thrown out Report this Post to the Staff

edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 09/22/2017 9:09 pm I did send them an email and made them aware of it, and suggested it was a typo, and asked them to correct their record. Report this Post to the Staff
