From what I have read, they were intentionally struck that way with curved dies. As to why, it was because the coin would have been so small...
From what I can see, I would say it would, yes. But I wouldn't try it myself.
I can't tell for certain that it is a fake from those pics. And I didn't say I could. But I can say that it looks like a fake based on those pics....
Brandon - All I can tell you is this. If you take slabbed coins to a knowledgeable dealer, or a knowledgeable collector, to sell them, they are...
Thad I kind of look at it like this. You have a medical condition and need to take medicine A. You have no problems with taking medicine A. But...
Except there is no such thing as an airtight coin holder. But I do agree that you should use the best holder you can get.
Well, I'll tell ya. The values for any coin are no different whether it is slabbed or not - to an educated and experienced collector anyway. And...

Oh I agree it can happen over a short period of time. But when the high grade coins are dropping over a longer period of time, like in that chart,...
Or, just contact BadThad, a member here. He makes and sells a product that seems to work quite well ;)
He's taking orders now. Contact him through the web site ;)
Plus he's a really nice guy and a true authority when it comes to Morgans. And for those of you who like his pictures, he sells coin calendars...
