[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 1469982, member: 66"]I have news for you folks PCGS has NEVER labeled a coin counterfeit. Even on my bodybags from the first generation slabs there is no selection for Counterfeit. But there is a check off box for Questionable Authenticity. My ANACS body bags have the Not genuine opinion written out on the first BB, a check box for Not a US Mint issue on the second, and a printed out Not Genuine for the third. I don't have much in NGC bodybags but up through at least the 12th generation holder they were still using a Not Genuine check off box. At some point though they did change because on their last BB's they do use the Questionable Authenticity label. ICG has used Questionable Authenticity since their beginning as well. Is it just me or is there the top of a S peeking out at the top of the damage on the reverse of the "1877" indian head? I suspect they used the same reverse die for both coins and then "damaged" the 77 to remove the S. By the way, anyone have any bodybags they don't want? Trying to track bodybags is not easy because most people don't want to admit they got them. They toss the BB and sell the coin raw instead[/QUOTE]
