How on earth do they conclude this has the 1/2d numerals?

Accumulator, Here is another one in the same auction that is wrong...this is NOT a mule!

PCGS promoted one, a few years ago, that was not a mule (it was chastised on this formum at the time), and a Officer of PCGS came on the Forum and tried to explain away the fact that it was wrongly attributed. This looks like the same coin. "Bronze and Copper Collector" could tell us for sure, as he looked at the coin first hand!

Dear god.....how do they get away with it?.....never mind a few dealers overgrading this borders on being fraudulent....especially as it appears to be the same US company repeating the same misattributions.....( is that a word?...or did I make that up?)

I sent Stacks / Bowers a note advising them of the two (2) errors in the coin descriptions. I'll let you know if I hear back!

I had also clocked the mule....or toothed border farthing if correctly described

I did mean to have a look on the forum to see if it was the same coin.

I'll check and see if I still have the images of that coin when I get the chance...
