EagleRJO Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 I came across this fake NGC slab on Temu for a 1880 (P) Morgan, advertised as "Commemorative" 1880-O MS68 "Replica". Looks like there are quite a few fake NGC slabs on this site, that do not say "replica" or "copy" on the label or coin, that I think someone at NGC should be made aware of, but I'm not sure who that would be.

Sandon Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 You should send an email to NGC at the address linked on the following "Security Center" page under the topic "What to Do When You Encounter Fraud." NGC Security Center | NGC (ngccoin.com). However, if this website is based overseas, there may not be much that NGC can do about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sent the info. Looks like another Chineese AliBaba or AliExpress site, but at least I let someone know I saw that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Bob Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 (edited) The coin is obviously a fake, and the government should definitely take action, but the holder doesn't actually say "NGC," and the insert is a different style, so I doubt there is anything that can be done about the holder being fake.

EagleRJO Posted December 25, 2023 Author Share Posted December 25, 2023 I bet NGC can protect a close likeness to thier slabs even without the logo, but I have a feeling they are overseas. Still really burns my butt seeing stuff like that so at least I let someone at NGC know what I saw, and posting it here might help raise awareness a little.

powermad5000 Posted December 26, 2023 Share Posted December 26, 2023 Ugh! I get its not exact but it is the same "style" of slab. What next? Thanks for posting this @EagleRJO. I hadn't seen one of these yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
