Summary list of TPG Certified Documented Counterfeits 1-22-2023

burfle23

This is my running list of recent counterfeits good enough to be certified genuine by the TPGs; the two in red are recent additions.

The 1st 4 in no particular order are the top 4 TPGs, the 5th category a combination of lesser known ones.

This is the master list; @LanceNewmanOCC previously asked which post/ list I intended to maintain…

Many of these have Coin Week Dark Corner articles written summarizing them.

Best, Jack.

hey thanks. it REALLY comes in handy for people to check their coins against. (at their convenience) one of the main reasons i made that one thread with a few hundred certs, images (even if the links are now broken or images are gone), etc. was that people have some centralized convenient reference. because of the level of quality of the fakes on your list, maybe even more important for it to be comprehensive and public. so thanks a mil.

i will presume all other threads, lists, etc to be null and void and this thread and list is the master going forward?

part of the reason also, is so that i can compile my own image database of these examples and MAYBE contribute though it isn't easy to sniff these out and do all the scut work but obviously well worthwhile. also to share with others of course.

link for my convenience.

Wow!
Thank you for your diligent effort on this.
Looking at this, spread out as it is, is quite sobering and a stark reminder as to how serious this battle is moving forward.

are these supposed to be on the master list above?

No, different list! The list above are the ones that slipped into genuine TPG holders.

This list would be updated with the Bay's: https://forums.collectors.com/discussion/1041923/master-list-of-the-deceptive-struck-counterfeits#latest
