Id love to get a few ancients to add to my collection
If you do I recommend any in NGC or PCGS slabs. As I said, the market is being flooded with counterfeits. Have a good day.

There have been thousands of ancient coin fakes showing up lately. Possibly the counterfeiters were not having much luck with the US market and decided to change markets.

I don't know very much about moderns but that is a very nice quarter.

That is very interesting.

Okay. Very interesting; love those old books and their language.

Shill bidding isn't allowed and they can permaban people for it.
EBay bans them today and they are right back tomorrow with a new ID. Sorry to be so negative but it's almost impossible to get rid of the crooks.

Based on the way the question was posed, it didn’t sound like the poster had any basis for thinking the coin should/would upgrade.
Yes - I understand but No - I couldn't refuse the 'tease'. The coin as described by the OP has a CAC Bean. That alone should insure a better than average chance of an upgrade. What comes into play here is: If there is an upgrade will it still be eligible enough to receive another of CAC's rewards? If not what will be the monetary difference, if any, between a MS 66 RD CAC and a MS 67 RD? I, myself, do not have the answer to that.

and it seems weird an extremely rare coin would not be in a major tpg slab and on ebay. seems another case of potentially way to good to be true perhaps.
Could be. I agree with your motivation to question it.
Agree. A very important coin such as described not in a PCGS or NGC slab. Pass.

What gmarguli said makes sense. However, if you are a gambler then 'roll the dice'.

So are u saying it is a fake coin?
Why don't you just show the reverse of the George V instead of trying to be tricky with that 1965 what ever?

Thats an awful sweet walker to put in a fake slab....
That's what I thought. Mark Feld commented that it was, in his opinion, real. I don't know enough about slabs to make a decision on this.
"the sale at Heritage shows the legit slab/coin"

ATS they are also having some discussions on counterfeit traders on EBay. Seems to me this 'Pandemic' has brought the worst out of the woodwork.
This particular discussion should really concern us. The debate is whether the PCGS Slab AND the CAC bean are fake.

If it had been a '56 coin it might have been different. Correct?
No. Not for that country unless you go way back when.
