Chuckle for Labor Day- do you think this 1889-CC is overgraded?

    :D...

    I found this one going through my pile this morning; actually don't remember where it came from!

    I took several closeup images to help:

    What's so funny?
    Just trying to learn here. The first thing that I noticed as an inexperienced Morgan Collector is the Label, bad date and Mintmark.

    All good answers! Bad coin and label- I was trying to borrow on goldrealmoney79's previous post and title...

    The barcode scans as a coin ID 7190, which is 1889-CC Morgan (ding ding ding, correct answer!), grade 62 (bzzzt wrong answer!) and cert 24537719 (bzzzt wrong answer!). The cert lookup is invalid, perhaps pulled due to being a known faked slab.

    08846012 is still valid though as an AU50. Kinda funny that they duplicated a good barcode on the wrong coin. I'm guessing there must be an MS62 version of this fake out there.

    I think it’s overgraded as genuine
