Alpha2814 Pillar of the Community United States 2023 Posts	Posted 01/03/2020 3:34 pm The label looks wrong, particularly the date. But the "proof" is that this coin doesn't look like the TrueView image at https://www.PCGS.com/cert/20322873 Edit to add the Heritage listing for (what we presume to be) the real coin with this certification number: https://coins.ha.com/itm/morgan-dol.../1159-3566.s Edited by Alpha2814 01/03/2020 3:35 pm Report this Post to the Staff

GrapeCollects Pillar of the Community United States 8938 Posts	Posted 01/03/2020 3:42 pm Both slab and coin are poor fakes. The fonts and font size are wrong on the label. The coin is comical. Link the listing here so nss or bobby can work their magic. Report this Post to the Staff

That is so far off that I would suggest spending some time looking at this https://www.PCGS.com/holders It isn't all inclusive but is a good start and will at least let you see how to dismiss the really bad ones Report this Post to the Staff
NDBirdman Pillar of the Community United States 747 Posts	Posted 01/04/2020 6:01 pm What, it's fake? Looks like an MS68PL to me, I mean, look at that baby shine!! While someone is buying that for a steal, I can sell them as many bags of fertilizer straight from the cat at a discount price of $800 each! It's gooey gold just waiting for them!
