Oddballs for Type Set

Russell12

I can't stop adding new things to my type set (all PCGS). Just started blank planchets. I currently have two non-PCGS slabbed coins (SEGS 1938 Jefferson Nickel Winning Design from 2002 and an ICG 1944 Henning Jefferson Nickel) and looking to add a 1883 Liberty V "Racketeer" Nickel. I can only find an ICG marked "Racketeer" which works. How do they know it's genuine?

They don’t, but if it has a finely reeded edge, that’s a big plus. It also should have at least AU sharpness.
