OK - look at this picture. You can see where the gold plating has split and has come off the coin. Look at the sharp edges. And you can see where...
I'm really not sure exactly what coins you are talking about. Or what fake holders for that matter. I don't even know if the slabs you are talking...
See post #8. What I said really is true.
It's the picture more than anything that makes me suspicious. You can see where the plating has worn away on the reverse.
The weight you report, 8.2gm, is a little light. The correct weight should be 8.359gm. Couple that with the look of the coin and I think you have...

The answers you want are in the Red Book.
Somehow I doubt that. But you believe what ya want.
Just from looking at the flan, it looks genuine to me. Rarely do you see a fake that has been bent like that. Now I know nothing about these...
