Passes Cert Verification, and I could see it at 63 based on the photos. I'm cautiously optimistic.
Rest in Peace

I've been checking my 80cc, which is also MS63 NGC, with yours and it looks good,,,,except for the letter O in ONE on the reverse. Looks out of place and small. My opinion only.
I would send a photo of mine, but my camera is crap for coin photos.

yes, it is a good one the cases are completely different. I'm going to put a photo together with a real case and the bad cases together.

I find the easiest diagnostic to see is the corner - where it's short on the fakes and longer on the real slabs.

If that's counterfeit then it's a good counterfeit.

I dion't remember where I read it, but there were about 100 PCGS fake slabs snt to China, or something to that effect. I wish I could be more specific, but that is all I recall. I do believe it was here on CCF.

Verify through the sight that identifies fake PCGS slabs and compare it to your item. If you see something that is suspicious, contact PCGS and they will be more than happy to look at the slab for you.

It'll be interesting to hear the final word on this coin.

I, too, do not like the shape of the "O" in ONE (although in other examples there is a variance in the "O" this one is a radical variance)

and I find the CC position and size suspect.

When do we find out whether this is real or not? What do you suggest for a beginning collector? Focus on graded coins or buy them just separate, ungraded.
