<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Troodon, post: 319281, member: 4626&quot;]ANACS is the only company that would grade those.&nbsp; They&#039;ll slab anything, assign it a net grade, and note any problems (assuming it&#039;s not counterfeit or altered).&nbsp; As I said in another thread, this it what I think all TPGs should do lol... why ANACS is the only company I use, when I use any at all.</p><p><br /></p><p>Look real to me.&nbsp; At least nothing stands out to me that screams fake.&nbsp; Dates and mintmarks don&#039;t look altered.&nbsp; You&#039;d also expect people wouldn&#039;t bother to fake coins unless they were going to aim for a better condition, but that&#039;s not proof in itself (simulating corrosion or damage would actually be more difficulty than faking coins in higher condition, just to pass as <i>less</i> valuable, why would someone bother?)</p><p><br /></p><p>Well let someone chime in about value.&nbsp; eBay&#039;s kind of fickle anyway so hard to tell.&nbsp; Rare keys tend to fetch quite a bit, even if a little damaged.&nbsp; Red Book value at G-4 is $190... the first one would probably be that if not for the damage, I&#039;d guess AG-3 net or so.&nbsp; The second one... er FR-2, PO-1 net maybe?</p><p><br /></p><p>Acommonly faked coin might be worth having slabbed even in this low of condition to give anyone you&#039;d potentially sell them to assurances about their authenticity.&nbsp; I guess it depends on what they&#039;d be worth, assuming they were genuine.&nbsp; My usual rule of thumb is I usually won&#039;t have anything slabbed that&#039;s not worth at least triple the grading fee.&nbsp; The second one that would be very iffy on, you might not make the grading fee back if you sold it.&nbsp; Up to you of course...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
