I'm fairly sure it's a copy/casting but....

I sniped it for 17, and yeah fairly positive it's a cast copy
but I don't see the $20 set getting a real one (then again said the same about the 1804 lol)
so here she is... rip her apart

Why?????????

 

go price any 1809 LC you can find.... that will answer your question lol

 

Meanie !
Seriously, I realize that silly. I just thought... forget it. It's your money. Sorry.

 

Oh please... I know it makes me a "stinker" but it was cheap enough to make a good hole filler.. You know I will make sure it's marked as a fake unless it convinces me it's real once in hand.. besides it's in good company as I'm still fairly sure the 1793 chain cent my brother sent me is a copy coin as well (but a damn damn good one in that case lol)

 

I totally get it. My Merc dime book has a contemporary counterfeit 16-D plugging the hole while the genuine article is slabbed... I loathe empty holes..

 

I can't tell the difference between a real and a fake. probably would have bought it too.

 

Let us know the test results when it comes in.
Someone spent some time making it and a nice example, wonder what time period.

 

If it is real you just got a steal for a (should be ) $100+ coin,hope on the positive side definitely,let us know.

 

Wrong reverse, has the reverse of 1814 S-295.
