Why isn't this $3 gold certified?

I don't get it. They don't note any flaws.

    If you are interested in finding out on your own, call Heritage and ask to speak to a numismatist about the coin.

    Let's not forget that 1882 is the most heavily counterfeited date in the $3 series. These were part of the omega series where a small inverted horseshoe shaped mark (similar to the greek letter omega) was hidden in the loop of the letter R in LIBERTY. I'm not saying this one is counterfeit and it probably isn't but this is one date to be very careful with.
