rum_n_cola Valued Member United States 175 Posts	Posted 04/26/2018 7:22 pm I have an opportunity to purchase this coin. It is in an NNC slab. Which basically means it is ungraded. I wanted your opinions. What grade would you give it, and do you think it has been cleaned, etc? Thank you all for your input and help. Report this Post to the Staff

Slider23 Pillar of the Community United States 4469 Posts	Posted 04/26/2018 7:40 pm The coin looks genuine VAM 2. If you purchase, check the die markers R &T in liberty. VF Details cleaned. Report this Post to the Staff

rum_n_cola Valued Member United States 175 Posts	Posted 04/26/2018 9:14 pm Thank you all for your input, I had a feeling it was cleaned. Here is the NNC slab and grade. A follow up question, who works here and how do they make money with such inaccurate grading? Report this Post to the Staff
MikeF Pillar of the Community United States 3479 Posts	Posted 04/26/2018 9:17 pm It looks harshly cleaned but I wouldn't be surprised if it also was plugged, and whizzed. With this jerk, it really is like a box of chocolates. You never know what the #@$% you're going to get. Report this Post to the Staff

An notorious ebay selling named centsles(sp?). He makes his money off naïve collectors who aren't smart enough to ask for opinions on CCF. Report this Post to the Staff
dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 04/26/2018 9:48 pm Centsles is NNC aka Bob Johnson. Do an internet search and find out what type of person he is. His basement slabbed coins are basically garbage... Report this Post to the Staff
Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6394 Posts	Posted 04/26/2018 11:45 pm Presuming it's genuine, this valuable key date is in an NNC holder for a good reason. It would be worth getting it into a PCGS holder with a "VF details, cleaned" description which would reassure serious buyers. The fact that it instead remains NNC-slabbed suggests it really has more problems than just the cleaning. Edited by Jaobler 04/26/2018 11:46 pm Report this Post to the Staff

hadleydog Pillar of the Community Canada 1267 Posts	Posted 04/27/2018 01:13 am I wouldn't touch an 1893-s in anything but PCGS or NGC plastic. Far too many counterfeits out there, and some pretty good ones at that. JMHO. Report this Post to the Staff
Heymikep Pillar of the Community United States 824 Posts	Posted 04/27/2018 09:56 am MikeF, Do you know what the outcome of the lawsuit? Did the judge throw it out? I was a little surprised that they actually named 7 ebay buyers with their name, user ID's and how much they have spent. Report this Post to the Staff

acloco Pillar of the Community United States 3540 Posts	Posted 04/27/2018 4:23 pm Run away from this coin. After looking at VAM World for the die varieties (only a couple dies were used to mint the 100,000 specimens - 1 obverse and two reverse dies), I don't like the mintmark on the coin pictured here.
