I am indicating the SLAB itself is counterfeited in VIOLATION of copyright laws. You can't even copy the pix of the real slab off the NGC site. Now as to the coin...waddaya think? Sheeesh.
BTW, that is a 6 figure coin as sold by Heritage, known pop is 20

He won't accept less than $85,000 for it either!

I believe that's what he's getting at. Appears to be fake as well. Like you said, if there are concerns, they are probably valid concerns. I'd pass. Concern #4 - seller has 0 (a big fat zero) feedback

Come on people. Really? It doesn't remotely resemble an NGC slab in any way.
Crazy - why are you showing the photo of the nickel?

Just on a whim I sent a message to the seller of this atrocity: Quote: "I would suggest you remove this listing before you get in much legal trouble for using a photocopied slab insert that is copyright protected. This coin is obviously fake, I won't even bother addressing that. Just received this message back: Quote: This coin is authentic. The slab is a genuine NGC slab. If you have any other questions you may speak with my attorney. Think I need to send him some tickets to the next Snowflake ball? Moxking, only NGC slab I had handy for comparison.

The seller responded after I asked them to remove: Quote: Sir with all due respect I'm telling you you're incorrect. This coin is genuine and the case it's in is authentic . It has been certified by NGC as well. If you have any other questions you can talk to my attorney. Thank you. So maybe his attorney can chime in.
