I give! What is supposed to be wrong. The PCGS number checks out on their web site as just what is listed.

 

Looks OK to me...

 

the coin looks bad to me, and the text does look 'off'

 

My only question is why does a cent struck on a dime planchet have a copper color?

 

I was wondering that myself. Does anyone know if PCGS would be able to sue the person if it is a fake? Just owndering. I guess though if the numbers match on PCGS than it might be real. PCGS might have probably had a trouble printing that day. But it does look a little out of the oridinary.

It is just you.

 

I guess I just thought the slab looked weird.

 

It is a real slab, the photography is just a bit odd.

 

Comes up as MS64RD on the PCGS site.

 

Something doesn't add up, could be mislabeled perhaps but it doesn't look like the error coin it says it is.

Wow, that is really a fake!!!!!!!!!! Nice catch, it looked good to me.

 

Why do you say that (forgetting about he possible fake) if a cent struck on a clad dime planchet it would look 'silvery' in color.

 

There is no way that is fake. He even has a money back guarantee with PayPal.

 

It is a fake.

 

I found another one and think they look close, see here.

Somebody ask him for a reverse picture before I'm convinced. I don't see anything wrong.

 

The slab is real.

 

... and the coin inside??

 

I'm 99.99% sure that the coin and the slab are both correct.
