    Hello all. Trying to help out a fellow collector with this coin. Variety?
    This is the best I have for now. Questions??

    For a chain cent it looks to good to be true but I’ll admit that these are not an area that I’m good at.

    Thanks for the input. Still waiting for the owner to get back to me with the measurements of the coin in question.
    This is all I have for reference. Know any other sites?

    Don't know about your fellow collector friend's cent, but this one is a fake I bought off of Temu last year.

    It does help. I noticed the cinquefoils are wrong and the Sun is smiling on yours, LOL.
