<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JeromeLS, post: 271295, member: 7867&quot;]The biggest reason that the grading companys give to persuade you to submit things is that they will grade it. This is ridiculous-if you don&#039;t know how to grade, you shouldn&#039;t be buying coins worth enough money to be worth slabbing. And then they go on about authenication, how there are all these amazing fakes of top coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>But apart from a couple of altered date mercury dimes, I haven&#039;t seen a SINGLE fake of an American coin that would fool anyone who has leafed their way thorough the American section of a Krause catalougue, and thousands of chinese fakes of 1804 dollars. </p><p><br /></p><p>I see way more convincing fakes of Roman coins, etc... </p><p><br /></p><p>So where are the convincing fakes ?? Show me ! </p><p><br /></p><p>J. (sorry for being so anti-slabs...just cross after seing a Charles I halfcrown in a slab labbeled MS-64&nbsp; which I wouldn&#039;t honestly grade F)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
