If the coin were a chinese "replica" the obverse would be stamped "Replica" .

Genuine- ms-61

 

I didn't know we were allowed to guess twice.

 

AU 54 cleaned.

 

I voted au55, to me the coin does not look have the typical consistent lines that indicate a cleaning, there might have been a dipping in the past. But since coin collecting seemed to have a period of encouraging blast white coins that might pass especially on an issue that is over 140 years old.

Thanks for the contest, I am thinking about having one once my photo posting skill at least becomes rudimentary.

 

MANY Chinese counterfeits are not stamped COPY or REPLICA. I have learned this the hard way. I was merely being nice calling it a replica and not a counterfeit...

The more I look at it though the more I think it's genuine but still cleaned.

 

did he guess twice?
