[QUOTE="johnmilton, post: 3586854, member: 101855"]There are a lot of people who couldn't grade a coin if their life depended upon it. They come to believe in slabs, and if you offer it to them at "bargain price," they will take a run at it. Just look at the bids the bad counterfeits get on eBay before or if the juck is taken down. There is no gold or silver in this junk. The Chinese can make it on the cheap. In the 1980s, it was AU coins marketed as "MS-65 investment quality" scams. Now it's Chienese Junk. Take a look at this "American Silver Eagle thing." It's in a genuine mint package with the Certificate of Authenticity, but the artwork is really crude.
