[QUOTE="Collect89, post: 2624853, member: 15445"][ATTACH=full]576419[/ATTACH] You might find this [slab] stored with my complete set of PF64 Liberty nickels in a SDB. It could cause the headline "Coin collector's heirs all die of shock after finding 1913 nickel in safe deposit box" :D The fake is clearly stamped "copy" on the reverse. For awhile, it was sandwiched with a real 1910 proof Liberty nickel obscuring the reverse copy stamp on the fake. The Whitman slab won't fool the first numismatist to view the coin.:) FYI- I understand that the Bebee specimen 1913 nickel is circulated because the previous owner McDermott mixed it with his pocket change to impress folks. Eventually McDermott was convinced to keep it in a plastic holder which he continued to carry in his pocket (so he could continue to impress folks without further damaging the specimen).[/QUOTE]
