<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mike Thornton, post: 4404018, member: 105289&quot;]No black box but I have a couple fakes.&nbsp; One purchased, and I knew better and made a bad choice anyway.&nbsp; The second is a very nice looking counterfeit 1889 CC.&nbsp; It&#039;s a very good copy and fooled an experienced dealer.&nbsp; Was sent to PCGS and returned in a flip and an appropriate note of it&#039;s status.&nbsp; I had to grovel a bit but it was gifted to me.&nbsp; I knew its status and offered to buy it, and this dealer refused to sell it knowing it was FAKE.&nbsp; I explained I wanted it as a novelty and he gave it to me. It&#039;s in a round capsule and carried in my pocket as a reminder of the number of counterfeits going around.&nbsp; The first one was chocked up to an expensive lesson.&nbsp; BTY the first one is an 1877 Trade Dollar.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
