    Sorry Jack, you've lost me on this one. Maybe my meds, but what was the point you were trying to make?

    What is the tell on the counterfeit slab? The barcode does scan with the PCGS app.

    Oops. I asked them how many cases of these counterfeits do they have.

    These sellers of counterfeits on eBay should be banned from the site.
    Unfortunately I think eBay cares more about the bottom line than the health of the hobby.

    If they ban them, they just come back with a different name.

    I browsed AliExpress and found several slabbed Morgans for sale. One vendor even touted their "coin production" capability, with pictures of the press. If it wasn't so sad it would be funny.

    So they are now showing pictures of their "mint." Yes, it is funny in a horrid sort of way.

    Has anyone done any metrological analysis of the actual coins encased in these counterfeit slabs?

    @Jack D. Young Thank you for clarifying this for me, and posting your friends video.
    In my defense, I know very little about Morgans or slabs. I know, I know, I should educate myself, but if I never buy any, what would be the purpose, and with time being short, I'll just stay dumb and rely on folks like Jack to catch these fakes. LOL

    What happens if someone cracks theirs out of the counterfeit slab?
