    I bought this coin off eBay. A steal for $120. But there are a couple problems (in my opinion) with having this coin in this holder. Can you find them?

    well, when you look it up on PCGS, it says it should be F15 but this slab says F12....it also says it is a 1811/10, but I do not see that

    Wouldn't that mean the PCGS database is screwed up, not the coin or holder?

    the reverse of the coin is on the obverse, and the obverse is on the reverse. The coin is backwards.

    Haha! I resubmitted it. It's the overdate, AND I thought it was undergraded. I sent it for reconsideration and I was right on both accounts. Although I thought it had a shot at VF20.

    The 1811/10 is easily identified by the dot in the date. Looks like 18.11

    Does the increase in value offset the cost to PCGS and loss of the OGH?

    Yes it does. It'll go for $200-$250.
