[QUOTE="farmerleon, post: 691502, member: 20603"][b]Newby ripped off[/b] Hi,new to the site/forum,and new to coin collecting. I initially wanted to purchase some silver eagles for an investment in case the price of silver rose dramatically,well all my purchases have been on ebay,and I have bought some great coins for varying prices some pcgs "slabbed" which I thought looked nice,mostly graded ms 69 then i saw a NES graded as ms 70..wow .had to have it..paid a crazy price...it arrived with the slab opened on one corner,and I can easiely open it with my fingernails...I know I was burned...but I am learning. is there a way to check out the certification # on the slab? I know it wont do any good,but I would like to see what coin it comes back to? Oh I am sure someone stuck some any ol' coin in the slab,and called it a ms 70 but live and learn huh? we were all new once!!! thank's[/QUOTE]
