    physics-fan3.14 You got any more of them.... prooflikes?

    It has F level of details.... and also gets an F for being a poorly made counterfeit.

    If it's any consolation... I reported the sale to Ebay as a counterfeit. Let's see if they shut it down?

    Reported this one, and the other 1803 dollar the same seller listed as "$1 face value US coinage". Bozo.

    I normally try to contact the seller and wait a bit before reporting...

    He responded a follows:

    "You are correct, of course. A coin shop in Birmingham confirms that the item was made in a mold, rather than pressed from a sheet of silver by a powerful clamping action. My apologies. I will cancel the listing, or ask for eBay's assistance in doing so".
