    I haven’t seen these three on the internet yet:

    The ’45-O’s cert is nonsense:

    The ’84-CC active with a TrueView:

    1884-CC cert.jpg

    And the ’89-CC also active with a TrueView:

    1889-CC cert.jpg

    Just a matter of time before we see these in droves…

    Best, Jack.

    No PCGS imprint on the bottom right corner of the front of the slabs either....

    The assembly line is going to be required to add another shift at this rate,

    Visually the two CCs have the same barcode. I can only get the first one to scan but it returns a gibberish 8 digit number.

    Any Seated Liberty Half collector can spot the 1845-O instantly as a fake by just looking at the digits in the date.

    Agree! My takeaway for myself.....avoid ebay and Morgans, due to my lack of knowledge
