“Are graded, encapsulated coins being faked?”
I’ve read of a couple incidents of those being found to be fake.

“...graded encapsulated coins...”
-
I have heard of a few cases of this, no references, only my recollection.
Some graded encapsulated coins have proven to be a very good investment.
In a real SHTF plan, “collector’s value” will be meaningless.
I only buy old junk silver coins...for their intrinsic metallic value,
not for any collector’s value.

I know PCGS had a problem a while back with a bunch of fake slabbed coins.

Are graded, encapsulated coins being faked? Do some research and get back to us with an answer would you?

Maybe a few. But ALL are vastly overpriced and a rip-off for those looking to hold savings in pure precious metals for various reasons.
