Hinkle Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Hi everyone, by doing my research I'm thinking this is a scam. I'm thinking, could I get in trouble for having this. Just saying ,because SGS was in alot of trouble and was raided for fraud. Anyway thought I would share and get some feedback on this. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Woods020 Posted January 23, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2022 (edited) That dime is far from a 70. One of many garage grading companies that grossly inflates grades. There are many of them. The marks on the neck and cheek keep this mid MS. It’s nice, but not perfect. Surprised they didn’t throw full bands on as well although it looks like the bottom bands are weak on this too.

Popular Post Coinbuf Posted January 23, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2022 You cannot get in trouble for having that, however it would be unwise to sell it and represent it as actually being an MS70 coin. But there is no reason to be concerned about owning that coin/slab combo in your collection. tj96, GBrad, Alex in PA. and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post RWB Posted January 23, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2022 In this instance, I think "MS-70" is an abbreviation for "Merely Slabbed - Number 70." Mohawk, GBrad, Hinkle and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Mohawk Posted January 23, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2022 (edited) I'm with the others, Joe. SGS was a scam grading company, but you won't get in trouble for owning that coin in that slab. If I remember correctly, PF 70 or MS 70 were the only grades SGS would actually give out, regardless of how a coin looked or the actual grade the coin was in. That's a big part of what got them into trouble. Edited January 23, 2022 by Mohawk GBrad, Hinkle, bsshog40 and 1 other 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
