Fake NGC Label? 0

[Christopher Kehoe]

Hello, I'm a newbie coin collector and have a few coins in NGC holders.  I received one in the mail today and was slightly concerned that the label is printed off-center. Also the hologram is different (smaller) than I usually see. Any idea if this might be a counterfeit based on the pictures? Thank you!

It scanned good on my phone app.

Cert lookup matches the coin. Get a barcode reader app and see if the barcode also matches? Fakers are usually too lazy to put the right barcode on. I don't see anything wrong with it though.

Terence beat me to it.

The NGC phone app is super quick and easy to scan coin .... anyone on here should download it if they haven't already. (and PCGS too)

It looks like the design used between 2001-2008. There is a reference on NGC's site.

Oh that's a handy link. Thanks everyone for the quick replies. I have the NGC app and scanned it but I wasn't sure if fakers would just use the same barcode of a coin that has already been verified... I figured they probably wouldn't waste their time with one like mine since it isn't worth much but ya never know!

Which is missing SEVERAL of the holder varieties.

Nice coin, too. 67's are not that easy to find, especially from Philly.

I didn't know that, thanks. Yeah I think the Connecticut is my favorite State quarter design.
