    The bar code on the fake is not a match for the serial number. The counterfeiters have since gotten better about making sure it matches. I would also post this on the World Coin Forum.

    What kind of proof is this? Doesn't look brillant.

    Seller is in Denmark and apparently is some gallery.

    Isn't this from where our President wants to see more immigrants? Actually it is Norway but that's pretty close.

    @SSR Thanks for the excellent detective work! The small numerals on the label of the fake are an obvious tipoff for me, but being a lifelong editor, I am quite attuned to wrong fonts and sizes, so I'm not sure others would necessarily pick up on that. It always pays, however, for any PCGS coin, to check the PCGS cert number to find out any history you can about that coin.

    Kind regards,

    George

    @SSR not entirely sure what this thread was about since you zapped all your posts, and now no one can learn from whatever it was you were talking about. Based on the replies it seems to have been something worthwhile....

    Unless the OP was threatened with legal action, there's no good reason to delete information from the knowledge base of the forum.
