NTC questions on authentication

jmcu12

I have my eye on a Morgan in an NTC slab. I have no illusions where the coin is concerned, I know what I am getting. But what I need to know, aside from over grading, are they accurate at authentication. I.e. can I be sure the coin is not fake?

Placid

Nope all grading companies make mistakes.

Anything that isn't NGC or PCGS should be considered raw.

Not that they don't make mistakes, but they'll pay for their mistakes.

Relayer.... I wouldn't go that far.... what you're saying is that about 40 people in the word know what's real and what's fake... I'd give the other companies with decades of experience some credit....and 50% of the board members here some too.....mmmmmmm....

If you're concerned, why not ask the seller to guarantee the coin is genuine? That way you're covered.
