[QUOTE="physics-fan3.14, post: 4855728, member: 19165"]I'll admit that I'm not an expert in this series. Did he say why he thought it was counterfeit? After reading NGC's guide, I went and took a look at some examples on Heritage. NGC says the 1924 St Gaudens is one of the most commonly counterfeited coins. They say that differences in luster is one of the biggest indicators. Comparing your coin to the ones I see on Heritage, the luster does look different on yours - although I'm not sure if that's just the image. You could also ask [USER=24314]@Insider[/USER] for his opinion - he is a well known authenticator.
