Not really, we'd just see a lot more fake slabs.

 

No doubt . . . .

Registry number lookup is everything. They will probably even counterfeit real registration numbers as well . . . .

Not sure what you mean by registry number lookup, but if you mean the slab serial number verification, the counterfeiters have been using real slab numbers since day one back in 2007.

 

I guess my question is: Does the counterfeited coin in the slab match the photos and description of the serial number close enough to pass scrutiny?

 

On PCGS usually yes, because PCGS almost never has pictures of the coin. On NGC it varies. If the coin was slabbed more than about 11 years ago yes again no pictures. Less than 11 years ago, maybe because the pictures tend to feature the slab more than the coin. But for older coins you can usually see the coin well enough for image matching. On recent stuff, bullion coins, commems, maybe not so much because there just aren't that many identifying features.

 

So far I have been able to both sell & pay for numismatic items.
Am I missing sumpin'?

Yes, the default company for shipping is USPS, but the default company for insurance is some other company. Their fine print excludes coins, but eBay is still happy to take your money for their useless "coverage", even if your sale is in Coins and Paper Money.

You need to explicitly unselect that insurance option and choose USPS's insurance instead.

 

You got to be kidding. Did you start this one?

 

Would of been funnier is you said Etsy @wxcoin

 

Love you Rodney

 

Some of us just buy coins to fill holes. As long as it’s real who cares. Their gifts today, tomorrow and whenever. I don’t save coins for myself. The ones that are somewhat errors go in a jug or something. I still don’t have any idea where they are. Honestly

 

My gifts are on my desk

 

The 1909 VDB is there also. Thanks member

 

The last time someone told me that it cost me a fortune!

 

Cherry picking There’s money there

 

Ok. You the bestests

 

We.Not (I). Must continue to call out Ebay. I like the way you members will report wrong doings. I’m all in!!!!

 

If the Feds are in eBay’s ear about money laundering which is why they stopped taking eBay cards for coins (that is why they stopped right?) then this will happen in a second.
