<p>[QUOTE="Return2AuStandard, post: 5199349, member: 116473"]Pls excuse the cross-post, but my initial posting under ancient coins failed to provide answers to my specific questions... having just picked up a second Zecchino gold coin, I immediately compared it to the first one and noticed a couple obvious differences... 1) the PCGS slab appears to hold the coin in a different manner (one has a 3 slotted design while the other does not), and 2) the obverse of the coin is positioned differently between the two different slabs. Presume PCGS simply changed/updated their slab type and the presentation may be just subjective, but thought it prudent to run this by the group here given everything I’ve read about counterfeits coming from China, etc. - sincerely appreciate your help! Take care (Cited from: <a href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/zecchino-potential-counterfeit.371117/#post-5185265" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/zecchino-potential-counterfeit.371117/#post-5185265">https://www.cointalk.com/threads/zecchino-potential-counterfeit.371117/#post-5185265</a>)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
