    You know, I don't get it. They just can't seem to get that PCGS holders have three prongs, not four! And that they have the PCGS logo at the bottom. I just can't believe how stupid these people are!

    @burfle23
    Yep, not good! Plastic and all=Fake! It sold today, hopefully it was a shill bid/sale, or someone was ripped off? Terrible.

    I've never seen "Morgan" printed on a label! The CC MM down there is a fail, one of many...

    Well actually, technically...
    ⇓Here's⇓ one of mine that has "Morgan" printed on the label as well, but she's legit!...
    Now the question is, where do they put the green bean?(yes, it's been CAC'd before the VAM!)

    Sloppy work - the only date that would say “Morgan” on the label is 1921

    I sure hope PCGS pursues these jerks and prosecutes them litigiously.

    This is how I spot fakes immediately. PCGS holders will always have 3 prongs or none.

    You are telling the counterfeiters how to improve their fakes when you note what's wrong with them. That's a problem.

    I'm telling the Hobby how to identify them and that is not a problem. Keeping the info to a small group IS the problem...
