Wow Cert # even shows a different grade on the PCGS website (AU53). Very poorly faked. I always check the cert number on PCGS and compare the photos if there are past auctions sales of the same Cert #.

Reported them but eBay won’t do anything about it because eBay likes when fakes are sold. They collect the fees and revenue
Bovine scatology ...Almost all of the ebay fakes reported by forum members have been acted on. It may take a day or two, but usually the auction is removed.

I’ve reported hundreds of fake silver pandas in the past, eBay never takes action. Maybe you needs hundreds of people reporting one item for eBay to notice
I reported this to EBay last night as well after starting a thread over at CT. I was browsing the listings and this one jumped out at me. I can see there being limited resources for pursuing fake Pandas and what not, but when it’s a PCGS certified coin for 900 bucks I’m really glad that action was taken.
Counterfeit slabs #$!$#^$^!!! Never in my early days would think this would be the new normal. These started showing up around 5-10 years ago? Am I close?

Look at the gasket prongs. It's ridiculous.
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
Too bad this wasn't noticed earlier.
The ebay fake, and the real one.

He sold this fake 1909-S not too long ago. (Buyer already left + feedback):

$906 from California.
Not only leaving + feedback, the buyer is very happy, shaking my head.
They are probably placing a lot of faith in our host's name on the insert and slab.
Listing is gone - completely.... Posts above looks as if it was sold, but now pulled. Not sure how that works. Cheers, RickO
That feedback was for a raw 1909-S cent, not the fake PCGS.

The fake 1909-S VDB in the fake PCGS holder has been removed. I hope the buyer is made whole.
Edited for spelling ...

And yet, as is often the case, EBay did pull that one. Though certainly, they don’t take action in as many instances as we wish.

I guess eBay does take action awesome

Nuked in time to save some unfortunate soul.

Correct, and as I mention earlier in a rebuttal to your unsubstantiated post, ebay will act on reports from Forum members.

100% Positive BST transactions
BTW the real AU53 example is fantastic!

I will be getting my best stuff reholdered, a few at a time, into the newest slabs with the chip for the extra security it provides.
