Anywhere from 2 to 5 - and sometimes it's worse for they slab problem coins as problem free coins.
They are the reason that all of the other scam artist TPG's exist. People saw ACG getting away with gross over-grading for years. They figured,...
If that thing is only 5cm in diameter, it is no coin but a replica.
