[QUOTE="Jack D. Young, post: 24684981, member: 93371"]I posted this one and a couple of other bad fakes in fake PCGS holders in Coin Chat yesterday; took some time to better review the Trade... [URL]https://www.cointalk.com/threads/grim-reaper-here-no-end-in-sight.407207/[/URL] The first ones we saw weren’t very good; common marks seen on several examples including one for sale on the German “Bay”. Going through PCGS CoinFacts there are a number of reverses used for genuine ones, but I couldn’t find a match for the fake. Of course, there is the fake PCGS holder as well. [ATTACH=full]1574920[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1574921[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1574922[/ATTACH] Cert has no on-line image, but I was able to dig up images of the genuine certed example. [ATTACH=full]1574923[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1574924[/ATTACH] And then this one hit the Bay yesterday; what is interesting is the obverse has 2 of the major matching marks, but they put an artificial tone on it AND they corrected the reverse with a closer matching CC… [ATTACH=full]1574925[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1574926[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1574927[/ATTACH] And the new compared to a genuine example on the right: [ATTACH=full]1574928[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1574929[/ATTACH] Getting really interesting out there!
