A fellow collector has this 1918. Might be real. Might not. I’m suspicious of the toning at least. His pictures. I’ll get to look at it in about 2 weeks
I share your suspicion, but I guess it's only fair to wait for decent pictures. Edit to add: even from this single blurry shot, that date looks really bad. Edit again: looks like there are at least two Etsy listings for similar coins in the $35 range.
Not sure either. Must be assessed with the coin in hand for further inspection. I'm not sure if @paddyman98 has one or not? I'll try to find another like @-jeffB said.
Do you know where he obtained it? I have seen many fake off struck coins appearing on various platforms.
Agree. I also believe a side angle and the weight checked will tell. Oh yeah, is it even Silver if it was faked?
Are you mistaking the off-center strike for an angled view? I can't see any hint of the coin's thickness in these photos.
