It's the same picture down to the shadows. Why would you steal a picture from a web site and try to hoax us like this?

There is one thing to remember in the error coin world, no two errors are ever identical. These coins are perfect twins. Yes, its a hoax...

The two photos are the same, except one is a gif and the other a jpeg that has been rotated. The shadows are the same as are the proportions and all the details of the coin. I have no doubt. I don't know how this came to be, or who is to blame - I just know that the photo posted is the same as the one on that site.
Postscript:
I see Rockdude posted the two photos while I was working on this. Same picture.

Thanks John | Very similar, yes. Identical with the same nicks, not a chance.

The guy is obviously a fake and he probably has been here before and has been booted before. If the admins are notified, with any luck, they'll boot him again:-) Nice try Joe...

Lets also remember that if this coin has in fact been taken off of another website and posted here, then the author who posted it is also in violation of copywrite laws, which unfortunatly can come back and bite Peter in the butt.
