This coin and six others I will attempt to post tonite are not (yet) in my possession. All the pics were taken in haste a couple months ago during a family health crisis. Better pics will be available in mid-January, if this forum finds that necessary or desirable. As with the others, I have no knowledge of authenticity. All came from a long dead uncle, into my Dad's hands...I'll have them soon. All your comments are most welcome...even bad news. Thanks!
Looks like a bad cast fake to me. There are many diagnostics I look for in these, and this one fails them all. Sorry.
They have been making cast fakes like this of this coin for 80 years of longer. They fool a lot of families, since they say something like, "its been in his collection since the 70's, so it must be real".
