If the $4,000 is burning a hole in your pocket, consider something like this: https://www.apmex.com/product/62132/1878-1904-morgan-silver-dollars-100-coin-bag-bu The profit potential is small, but you'll get something 100% real for your money
do NOT buy it is fake. If I were to spend $4,000 on a coin it better be in a PCGS or NGC holder/plastic slab and it needs to be verified on each of their websites from the slab holders numbers. If I had $4,000 to spend I would buy 5-10 nice coins. If you are going to spend $4,000 on 1 coin you make sure it is real/authenticated.
If you want a coin of that quality start with a 1948 cent and cut it down like he did. You can also make wide date variety 1914-d cents that way. Do it for your own pleasure and no one will say a word. Do it and try to find a victim to buy it and every one here will try to get you arrested.
I just saw a coin billed as a 1909 s Lincoln cent and the reverse shows a VDB...of course I put in a bid on it, if nothing else I want to see what it goes for.
The fakiest fake that ever faked. 1. I can get $100,000- $250,000 at auction, but I am willing to sell it to you for 4,000 and you're not allowed to get it checked out first. Well that's not suspicious at all. (rolls eyes). Grainy surface and color are wrong. The discovery of a new 1943 bronze is big news and a 6 figure coin. There are literally over a million fakes for every real one. What's on the rim at 7-8 o'clock? I doubt it's a steelie underneath but it looks like that coming through.
