    I love these because I would probably buy it and want to know what you see. The denticles are really crappy.

    First off, it ain't in a TPG holder. That signals Felix Unger to me.....

    Are we still guessing? Looks "funky" to me. Like pot metal or some cast copy. I'm thinking from an eastern country. :brb:o_O

    It has been cleaned and I see clashing on the right side of the obverse next to the star at 3:30k or so.

    Other than that I don’t know these dollars well enough to call it a fake. On pins and needles for your take…Spark

    That's what I saw. The denticles look pretty funky. Although when I look at genuine examples the denticles look weird also.

    Die-struck counterfeit? It has the diagnostic "broken R" in LIBERTY.

    It's a fake, but a more deceptive one than the older Chinese counterfeits.

    Other than that there is a 99% chance that it's a counterfeit, there's not thing wrong at all.

    If it's real it's been cleaned to death in a way that is rather unusual.
