<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tom B, post: 1556614, member: 11854&quot;]Each grader sees an enormous number of coins every day.&nbsp; They also see plenty of classic gold and many more tougher coins than one might think.&nbsp; Quite a few of these coins are heavily counterfeited and there are many known diagnostics for individual counterfeits as well as diagnostics for the method of production.&nbsp; The PCGS service reps are sometimes wonderful, but other times overstep their bounds with little knowledge.&nbsp; It appears you encountered the latter; this has been an ongoing issue with PCGS for many years.</p><p><br /></p><p>It may be that the graders could tell your piece was a counterfeit even before they looked at the date, or they just might not remember the individual coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
