[QUOTE="Mark Feld, post: 1300761, member: 11467"]I have heard of a number of such attempts. Some individuals have apparently opened PCGS and NGC holders and switched coins. In some cases, even a cursory glance at the edges of the holder made it obvious, but in other cases the work was very difficult to spot. It's known that this has been done, and detected. But what's not known is how many such switches have gone undetected. My guess is that there are still some out out there, but likely, a very small number. If buyers know how to assess/grade coins, they are obviously far less likely to end up with a switched coin.[/QUOTE]
