PGCS has to have a cert # that's only way to verify

Jeez-Louise the seller gives the cert number in the listing.
The coin checks out.
How much simpler can it be?
I feel sorry for the seller, their reputation has been called into question because people can't be bothered to read the listing.
This type of situation happens far too often.

Nothing wrong with the listing. Cert # is in the description. They have a return policy and good feedback. Looks like a reputable seller.

It's real but you can find 1000's as good or better for under a dollar. 6 degree rotation -oooh !! Double 9 - There are thousands !, and are not worth being certified. It's probably harder to find a 1979 cent that doesn't have doubling. You can find rolls of 50 red 1979's for several dollars, there are many sellers of mint rolls (I have sold AU/BU rolls through ebay at $1.50 a roll !!). A real dime-a-dozen coin.

DBM I am sorry. I have not seen a PCGS certified coin. except for the ones that get posted here. I went into PCGS registry. I could not find that coin listed in the registry. so I am very sorry if I cause any trouble in anyway.

Now that we can see the link, the certifying and shipping will cost more than the coin

It looks legit to me, the cert # given in the Item Specifics checks out, and I say buy it if you like it.

Completely legitimate. It's your money if you love the coin.
