So, does this get into a Genuine holder?

Makes Ya Wonder, Huh??

would be very dangerous in a Ginny, in my opinion...

Wow..someone ruined a pretty nice looking 1800! I dont think it would slab at all by pcgs.

Well, it is a genuine 1800 dollar...

No, it would not. For the same reason a 1914 Lincoln with a D added won't slab genuine: it isn't.

It would be misleading if it were in a Genuine holder as they exist today, however, this is one of those rare items that WOULD be cool in a holder marking it exactly what it is, such as:

Altered would be the correct term. It's not counterfeit.

dsessom

That's true.

Should not holder.

SamByrd

no.

great hole filler?

who wants a faked coin in a genuine hole?

Another case where a Binary either-or determination of a simple, vague question is difficult

is it a genuine US coin? yes

is it a genuine bust dollar? yes

is it a genuine 1804 bust dollar? no

one could ask the same questions of other altered pieces: is an elongated cent "genuine", Yes or No? how about one of those pushed-out Barber coins? is it a "genuine" barber half, yes or no?

well..

maybe the answer depends on why you're asking.... the context, the clarified question, the motivation. (and of course, who's profiting, or not, from the answer )

This shouldn't even be allowed on eBay, should it?
Pretty much the same as taking a 44-D Lincoln and making it in to a 14-D. eBay wouldn't allow that auction, even if stated, would they?

Having said that, I wouldn't mind owning this coin.

But it would make a great conversation piece...

Reminds me of a '64D Peace $.

For me, I would not want it in any holder and I would not want it in my collection. I also don't like holed coins, coins with graffiti, or bent coins. Others love to collect those and that is just fine. I would rather not have an 1800 Bust dollar, than own this one.

Someone took a very nice rarity, that was already valuable, and tried to make it into something even more valuable, in the hopes of ripping someone off. In the process, they turned it into worthless junk.

That coin should be put back to an 1800, then it would gennie as "tooled" coin, same thing as a woman who has her breast implants removed----------BigE

My 1914 half dollar with the mint mark removed did not holder at PCGS even though I toke it out of a ACG slab.

So no a altered date coin will not holder IMO.
