[QUOTE="ddddd, post: 26681683, member: 22377"]Has anyone used the ICG Cointalk special recently? And can counterfeit coins get slabbed in the special ICG counterfeit holder as part of the special? I ask because I have a group of Morgans that I am debating what to do with them. From what I know, they came from a fire years ago. I was pretty sure they were all real. With the latest increase in silver I was planning on selling (under melt/ at the price of a cull) but when the LCS tested it on their sigma device, it did not scan correctly. He mentioned something about it testing 85% silver-which sounded weird to me. Two other coin stores also had the coins fail on their sigma devices. Maybe fire damage changed the coin so that it doesn’t test properly? Given that a real Morgan has about $40-$60+ of value (fluctuating quite a bit with spot changing) but one that does not test has $0 value, it seems like there could be value in sending the group to ICG (or Anacs) when there is a grading special (PCGS and NGC are definitely too expensive for this). Below is one example. What would you do? Try the ICG method? Try some other dealers at a show? I don't want to just toss them if they are real.
