"It is not graded by PCGS, the coin is slabbed in a PCGS slab, I got them direct from the manufacturer"

Let start with copy right infringment and go from there.

I don't get it? Is it in a PCGS graded holder or not?

sonofagunk · December 19, 2004 8:32AM

he got the holder "from the same manufacturer as PCGS", so it is "in a PCGS holder", but PCGS did NOT put it in there, he did it himself. Oh brother

Then it's not a PCGS holder as he is selling it as, it's a holder from that manufacturer only and graded ms68 by him. Nice work, if I was in the market for that coin, i would not have questioned it and just bid for it as a pcgs ms68 coin. Hey, with all these fraud threads, we can rename this the pcgs Gestapo forum!!

One would have to be nuts to be bidding with his 95% feedback rating. And a hidden auction to boot.

When will the madness end

My question to him:

<<Is this coin certified and authenticated as an MS68 BY PCGS?
It doesn't look like a PCGS holder.....What is the certification number so I can check it out?
Have A Great Holiday Season!

The larger version of the Coin World slab is nearly identical to the PCGS slab. I'd bet a dollar to a donut that's his "manufacturer".
