And the 1839 Half went through multiple time warps. Transported into the future to be graded by ANACS and then magically transported to end up in the vault 200 years ago while shedding its plastic holder (after all plastic wasn't invented at that time--nor was the New Orleans mint). I wonder what else the seller is pulling out of his....um....vault. I think the OP has enough info to decide whether to bid on the coin.

But OP, the listing clearly states "A long-time collector volunteered his time to see that all coins are 100% Authentic guaranteed." How could you refute a statement like this from such a trustworthy seller?  |

? He has over 1000 sales w/ a 99.6% Positive rating. Sounds pretty good to me. A feedback rating of 99.6% with 11 neutrals and 4 negs In the last 12 months is NOT good! You have to look at and READ the feedback to get a true picture of what is going on. |

Almost certain at this point it's counterfeit. Pretty much figured it must be as P01 are selling for around $1500 so why would you try to sell one without grading it first. Probably the same fake they tried to sell before, just crudely ground down which would explain the uneven wear.

So grateful to that long-time collector who volunteered his time. What a champ.
