    Actually..i'm not quite understand the first part of your chinese sentense maybe the translator program translated it directly from English, therefore the sentense look very odd...as the SLQ that you suspect...:secret:

    You think Chinese is easy? Even simplified Chinese. How would you write it?

    I basically said, that it is a good idea to get the weight because the sheild doesn't match the detail of the coin.

    The shield has some signs of wear, i think EF or AU coins do have the similar situation do you think so?

    No I don't, but the consensus of people much more educated than I am believe that it is a function of the strike and not wear on the shield. Normally there is no way for the shield to be that weak and for the clothing to be that sharp, especially over her the left thigh. Also, I agree with Russel that the eagle and stars look weird. But that might be a function of your software magic more than anything else. Your second posted image seemed a lot more right. Therefor it might be that you have a very high AU coin.

    The weight is right. 1925 was a very bad date for the shield, so that alone would not suggest a fake. From Cline's book, "Not usually strongly struck. Full detail, but soft lines in shield (verticle and horizontal) usually missing or very weak."

    my biggest concern would be location and the reliability of the seller, you are looking at it in hong kong I assume? Or are you buying it on the internet from the states? I would be very wary unless you feel the seller is trustworthy.

    it is a common and inexpensive enough of a date, (at least in the states) not to take a chance if you have your doubts, you can always get one from a source you trust.

    It's from a reliable dealer who brought it from USA (he visited to Florida weeks ago) and does not sell fake. And usually brought numismatic item from European too. It's many fake in Hong Kong this one i would always avoid. Reliable dealers in HK isn't that many, only 3 to 4 i know so far. But whether it's from realiable dealer or not, is not helpful for this thread anyway, the most important is the coin itself.
