I can't say for certain that it didn't ever happen. However, I was a grader at NGC from 1991-1998 and wasn't aware of it occurring during that...
Why? They don't grade uncertified coins. And I believe that is what the original poster asked about.
I think that's far too much of a generalization, even with the examples cited. Among other things, it depends upon the nature and extent of the...
Actually, an S mint-mark would have aroused a lot more suspicion. At a certain point, rarer is not necessarily better with counterfeits.
Reporting for duty, Mike:smile My guess is that the coin is genuine but has been (more than gently) cleaned. By the way, while the price might...

Hi, I received an incoming friend request with your name on it, but I don't know what that means to be able to say yes or no to?? Sincerely,...
I apologize in advance if I am mistaken, but believe that those two items are genuine, as well. I don't advocate buying those types of uncertified...

Frank, sadly, there are a lot of dishonest coin dealers, just as there are a lot of dishonest collectors and dishonest people in other...
Thank you Jim. By the way, what's an "Overton"?:secret: :D
Frank, I thought I was pretty clear in distinguishing "cherry picking" from a misquote due to clerical error, etc. But in case I wasn't... For...
Mark, thanks for the reply. I generally distinguish "cherry-picking", which just about everyone seems to think is perfectly fine, from buying a...
Mark, I'm not clear from your post - did you think or strongly suspect or know that the price quote on the 1830 Half was an error? If so, why...
If I had to guess, that was a good guess. :)
Yes.
