The more time we spend looking at genuine, unaltered coins, the easier it is to spot counterfeit and altered coins. Think about the cartwheel look of an original Morgan and the flat dull look of an overdipped Morgan. The bourse floor of any major show (if we ever have those again) is at least a full college semester of learning, if we take the time. We may not get to the point of knowing what was done to alter the appearance, but we can get to the point of knowing that the appearance was altered. That's enough to avoid getting burned.

This is a coin I sold to him a bit over a week ago. I bought it from a collection in the UK. I guess I'll keep an eye out and see how he re-lists it.. https://www.ebay.com/itm/154290019183

He had an 1858 Flying Eagle cent NGC MS64 PL.

I never saw a cent graded PL before. It sold for close to 5K.

It's not the only one NGC has certified as PL so they must exist. :-)

That '78 IHC looks simply weird. Would never buy that.
