<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 515758, member: 4552&quot;]Exactly what I just stated on anothe post. I feel many people have purchased fake coins in fake slabs, real coins in fake slabs with erroneous grades, redone slabs with changed coins. As I mentioned in that other post there could be many of these in your possesion right now. People purchase a slabbed coin thinking it is the real thing, put it away, never really have it authenticated. At coin shows I&#039;ve been shown such things by dealers since they know me. Many are being sold and the purchasers will probably never know unless they somehow have them checked. </p><p>China, and possibly other countries, are presently mass producing some of our coins and many are being put into slabs. </p><p>I really wonder how many coin collectors have fakes and don&#039;t know they are fakes. </p><p>One dealer I know purchsed a 1916D Mercury Dime in a slab. He didn&#039;t like the grading company so he opened it and submitted to one he did like. It came back in a body bag as faked. HMMMM. So who knows.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
