Cleatis87 Valued Member United States 125 Posts	Posted 11/12/2017 08:13 am Need some expert opinions...there is the PCI slabbed coin that the seller won't give updated pictures on. My research led me to certain old PCI slabs can be trusted, others not so much. Which version is this style? Is it worth risking over a couple hundred on? Report this Post to the Staff

However, they've been in the market for 30 years and have typically been well picked over looking for upgradable coins... so there is rarely any big wins unless the coins have been off the market since they were slabbed. Stay away from the gold box, and ESPECIALLY the counterfeit Green label (you can tell because the "PCI PCI PCI" microprint you see in your photo is just blobs. -----Burton 50+ year / Life / Emeritus ANA member (joined 12/1/1973) Life member: Numismatics International, CONECA Member: TNA, FtWCC, NETCC, EveryCountry (online) coin club Owned by three cats and a wife of 40+ years (joined 1983) Author: 3rd Edition of the Sample Slabs book, https://www.sampleslabs.info/ Report this Post to the Staff
