Problem is, NGC does not guarantee authenticity or attribution. All it guarantees is the grade. Read more here:...
How good is CoinTalk compared to the TPGs? Let's find out! Over the next several months, I'll be posting a continuous stream of Guess the Grade...
Definitely, absolutely, no question asked Artificial Toning. Everything about that screams fake. Take a look here for what toned Liberty nickels...
