Is this an example of tight 1st gen PCGS grading?

    That's a rather interesting looking Morgan.

    That is truly an example of tight grading.

    The graders shorts were way too tight.

    The insert is real. The plastic is real. Unfortunately the holder has been opened and the coin changed. I have bought such first gen holders before. One I recieved could be popped open with my fingers with very little effort. I think that is why, along with the counterfeit inserts, that PCGS changed the holder. JMHO.

    I have bought a lot of first Gen Morgans from these folks. Always good people to deal with. It looks like a nice conversattion piece. If it is a switch, it is worth the money, to get it off the market. I will report back when it arrives.

    Am I looking at a $1000 unstruck coin blank, or an old holder reopened with a Poor1 coin inside??---Unless this is a photo alteration the seller is so dumb, he has managed to jip himself, as they would be both worth a lot more than an old MS63 common date!!
