    the photo of the holder does not match the photo on the ngc site....the photo on the ngc site has small ngcs in the band....other than that I can't tell a difference.

    I think the photo on ebay washed out the smaller lettering. If you look real close you can see what looks like the small lettering.

    after examining the two photos closely.....I still am unable to see any markings on the ebay photo....they are about the same resolution and should be as visible as the photo on the ngc site...

    You should be ashamed of yourself for doing this again. Do you realize that those are holograms, and different lighting shows different wording? Come on now.

    He has claimed genuine coins are fake, and visa versa, multiple times. No clue what he is talking about. It is dangerous and foolish.

    Again with the personal uneducated opinion stated as fact; simply unbelievable. At least you were a little less accusatory with the title this time, and baby steps are better than no steps, I suppose...

    Perhaps, instead of focusing on what you can't see, you should on what you can; the coin shown in the ebay link is CLEARLY the same as in the NGC cert photos. Facts over conjecture, remember?

    :banghead: Oh boy.. this seller has pretty great feedback for 767 items sold/bought.. I don't think the person is going to screw that up selling a fake slab. It's genuine :watching:

    The seller has no Feedback in the last six months and none as a seller in the last year. Ain't touching it with stolen money. Somebody could have had that account hijacked in waiting - having been abandoned by the previous owner - for over a year, making occasional purchases to keep it "active." Circumstantial evidence - the buying record, what there is of it - makes me think the account is under original control but all the same I'm walking right past this one.
