Jed293256 New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 08/02/2018 3:07 pm Hello, I need some input on the grade of this coin . My friend and I have been arguing about it ever since I got it. Hey thanks It is higher grade than I do. It was hard to take pictures of it because of the luster it has. I don't think it has been cleaned. Do you think NGC Is better than PCGS? Please take a look at the pictures I'm sending. Thank you in advance, JED P S You guys are the greatest! * Moved by Staff moved to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

The gap with US coins between them and NGC has been growing now shrinking and doesn't look like that's going to change, but PCGS has been grading tight lately Report this Post to the Staff

Jed293256 New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 08/03/2018 10:56 am You guys are right it is a counterfeit . The only thing good about it It weighs 12.5 grams . I got it at a yard sale In a box with some other items . There was a zooMax snow digital magnifier In there which retails for around $400. It wouldn't turn on but when I got home and plugged in the charger it worked. All it needed was a new battery . I think I did OK it only cost me 20 bucks. Thank you guys for all the info It really helped , JED Report this Post to the Staff
