Money. Did you see the prices on those fabricated errors shown in post #8? Rogue employee. If they had been caught by mint security before they...
All I can say is I have never seen a fake PCGS slab from that generation of holder. PCGS was several generations later than this when the fake...
S-281 1810/09. I think the sharpness is better than F but the surfaces are moderately porous and detail is difficult to see in the obv image. I...
