Dealer purchased and then asked if genuine...

Uh, no...

Same bad holder as the fake "Morgans" without the PCGS logo on the lower right front corner. Garbage barcode as well that does not scan.

Cert does have a TrueView image, but of course no match!

The known CN counterfeiters continue to expand their offering, apparently unchecked.

Best, Jack.

    Curious about the back story, dealer bought the coin and then asked. Was this an in person purchase or how did this unfold.

    It wouldn't surprise me if this dealer already knew the answer to his question.

  • Years ago, I found a very convincing copy at a pawn shop as brilliant as the one on the right, It was in a 20th century type set.

    Yes…and the buyer’s premium was only 23%! 🤔🤪

    The fake is really, really bad with granular metal on the obverse.
