Just another counterfeit 1881-CC Morgan in a fake "PCGS" slab but with a "twist"...

burfle23

I have written a couple of articles on fakes using faked GreatCollections auction labels and this is the latest example,

The reverse QR code of the counterfeit takes you to the CN PCGS site for the cert.

The GC number gets you to the genuine sold there.

A fake in a fake with a fake auction label- maybe it can get worse?

Best, Jack.

I know these are legal but it is tough when ANACS and NGC support this:

Light background makes it look light:

Cheaper for the coin, but can't get past the fee for delivery:

free to Canada = import fees have become pricey

I actually wrote a previous Proxiblog article on this same fake, different seller. Gotta love the bay ...
