<p>[QUOTE="Vess1, post: 1386220, member: 13650"]Hey, I understand what you're saying. I can't blame you for wanting to learn more. But really, what else is there to say concerning this specific coin? It's an online auction with relatively poor pictures. It just looks like a dark coin that was not photographed well. </p><p><br /></p><p> Edit: I re-looked at it and admit the pics aren't that bad. I guess there was enough there to judge it. Maybe you're right that we should have analyzed the coin further. He may not have sent it in because it apparently has surface damage and would not grade. I still think it would be worth submitting for authentication though.</p><p><br /></p><p> I know there are fake slabs but they are identifiable. You can also look up serial numbers and compare features with pictures online. The TPGs are third parties who don't care if a coin is real, fake or how high it grades. That's worth a lot to me. Try telling a seller their coin is fake or not as high of a grade. Do you really want that battle? Because you'll never be right, even if you are.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
