I just tested scanning the barcodes, and the second one's of all scan and register properly, while all the first left one or the top one's will not scan at all using the PCGF Cert Verification app.

Just looking at the seller of the coin on the right makes me feel comfortable with its authenticity, as they have a sterling reputation!

They all returned the correct info embedded in the barcode. Clearly that seller has a connection to some good fake slabs/labels and I hope they get prosecuted. |

Yes there have been, but it seems they are getting better and better.

Wow, I had no idea that the fake slabs were so convincing. This definitely makes me only want to buy from places that I trust. As an aside, US coins and Jewelry who was mentioned as the seller of the actual coin in the OP is one of those places. I live not too far away from them and have bought a number of items at their physical store over the years. |
