| Best fake to date
Here is a little beauty of a 1928 Peace dollar. Unfortunately, this is a fake. A very good fake. The weight is a bit off at 22.53 grams. Should weigh 26.73 grams. The diameter is a touch larger than should be, but not noticable by the eye. No casting marks are evident. This coin has been harshly cleaned, giving the evidence of a real coin. A very nice fake indeed. Would fool most collectors. A nice little profit for the person counterfeiting the coin.
A little tough to determine if this is 90% silver. I suspect it is a base that has been plated. With the cleaning, it is not obvious.
