    fake!

    Once again it's nice to have trained eyes like you for help. I wouldn't bid on this coin just becase of it's location, but at first glance it looks ok. Then when you start comparing pics of other coins the differences really jump out, like the stars and the ear. Thanks Bone.:thumb:

    He has two bust halfs and they both look fake to me.
    And like vipergts2 said I won't buy anything that is coming from Taiwan or China because so many fakes ar coming from there now.

    Anytime that the seller is from China, BEWARE!

    Also, read his feedback, it seems bogus, all Chinese sales, and now to the US?

    I just purchased a lot of counterfeits from China (sold as such)...Each showed similar characteristics like this one...namely, the greyness wasn't even and lots of die breaks (like this one). I doubt this is real. Take a look at the reeding, there appears to be a lip....

    Looks cast to me. If it's not, then it has some serious problems.
