@Sel_69l really you think I bought this, if it did I would not consider myself a collector. More for education and to remind people that slabs aren't foolproof.

@Sap nah not to be rude but the fruitheads who put this together not trying to give them ideas but yeah (straight away red flag)

found this horrible item on what you would in the states term a selling website like craigslist, Gumtree and they don't care cause there is a lot of these posts not just the oh I found a thousand dollar PMD coin (termed as an error)... oh well hope you guys where entertained.

Scammer aren't targeting the American collector market with these fake slabs as you guys would spot these from a mile away :D. They target your market with fake slabbed koalas and Perth Mint kangaroos or fake Peace dollars especially intermixed with real junk silver just buyers beware, times are tough there only going to get harder.

these are more for the more uneducated Asian markets such as south east Asian where gold is a big deal, but the knowledge about these is very sparse

Ryurazu, thanks for posting this. It's important that collectors know as much as possible about counterfeits. Even though this is a particularly crude fake, it's useful to know it exists. Awareness of such bogus slabs might reduce the chance a collector will make a costly purchasing mistake.

The reverse is too rough. But what's wrong with the slab?

Send it to PCGS with a request to re-slab it. I'd like to know their response.
