What do you think? http://www.ebay.com/itm/1837-Capped...76?pt=Coins_US_Individual&hash=item4ae2ddbea0
I'm not that well-versed on the CBH, and I don't know if SEGS would knowingly slab a counterfeit coin. Perhaps @Tomb will chime in. Chris
It looks right as rain to me. Are you comparing this reeded edge example with the lettered edge one, because they look significantly different.
It looks genuine. The toning is not attractive, but it is natural. Many of the older silver coins turn a Mauve color over much of their surface, particularly the surface (usually the Obverse) that is exposed to more of the environment.
It doesn't look right to me, but I'm not an expert. SEGS is not trustable. I didn't think you could sell SEGS slabs on eBay.
You can't sell them as a grade in the descriptions. However e bay loves money more than anything else,that said as long as your write up does not include that the TPG is the grade you can sell the coin. Yes just another e bay pay pal loop hole.....unless they get a complaint then it's on the seller.
I looked at the original listing and they certainly did not go out of their way as far as describing this coin. But Paddy54 is correct.
Sure you can sell SEGS slabs, you just can't sell them as certified, they aren't one of the approved grading companies. Lots of SEGS stuff sells, just maybe not every day... There are 52 listed for sale (based on a title search) right now and 58 have sold in the last 90 days. If you expand the current search into the descriptions there are 92. OK, that's tiny by comparison with NGC (170K listed, 110K sold), but not unsalable.
