Here are some of the tell tale signs upon a good going over. The letter in Liberty are all a little differently than they should be. No dot in front of "IN" or after "TRUST". The "S" in trust appears to be an after thought. The rays on the head are all a bit off. The two after the "E" are both a little longer than normal. The nose is a bit off also. The "E" in Liberty looks like an after thought. The reverse also has a few items that are a bit off. The letters again are all a little modified. Look at both "L" in dollar. The rays also just don't add up.
I believe that this coin was created using a home made cast. Probably using adjustments for the worn details. Once careful examination is given, lots of little details jump out at you. It is only the quick glance that can cost you a few hundred bucks. The 2x2 holder had a price tag of $255.00 on it. The coin was bought early last year. The latest owner had concerns, and finally shipped the coin to us for authentication.
