I would be very concerned that a coin like that hadn't been graded and encapsulated by a highly respected grading company. While there are...
I would suggest signing up with Heritage in order to be able to view their auction archives for free. It is a fantastic source of informtion,...
Well, that is very different from what you first said and it appears to be another example of incorrect "information" from you. If so, it is...
Please point us to a credible source and FACTS which show that highly regarded grading companies were "faked out" by (counterfeit) Trade Dollars...
I agree with that, and even if the coin in question turns out to be a counterfeit.
Those stars are merely weakly struck, something that is not especially uncommon. And the area at the obverse rim at 5:00 has already been...
If you want to make a point, you might consider trying to do so without changing the words of the person you are responding to. I believe that my...
If, from those books or by other means, a person can determine that a coin is genuine and has a decent grasp of grading, the concern about the...
So, I must ask, what will you do if NCS comes back and says the coin and holder are counterfeits?If I am wrong I will freely admit it - I have...

Your thread title reads "...Counterfeit.", with no question mark included and no indication that you are merely offering an opinion. Even as a...
Hi Larry, It looks like a solid AU to me and to my eyes, is neither attractive nor ugly.
We don't have nearly enough FACTS upon which to determine the true knowledge level and motives of such posters. I believe it's as or more likely...
The 1798 certainly looks genuine to me. The fact that there are a lot of counterfeits being offered (both in and out of holders, these days)...
Only one person who posted a grade guess before Ruben said AU, while four guesses were lower, so it sure doesn't appear that his grade was based...
It looks XF, at a minimum, to me.
In the opinion of many people, myself included, much of the so-called "conservation" on the part of NCS DOES change and/or damage many of the coins.
Presumably you meant "moot", not "mute".:confused:
To avoid possible confusion, that coin, which was net graded and noted for cleaning, was encapsulated by NCS, not NGC. To my knowledge, NGC won't...
Here is an example of a coin which was presumably "conserved" but, due to its condition, did not receive a grade from NGC:...
