Notice that I am not disputing that it is a fake. What I want to know is WHY is it a fake, and WHY is it obviously a fake. I spent an hour...
There has been some discussion of why this is an obvious fake: [ATTACH] Looking in SNG Copenhagen, it looks almost exactly like SNG Cop 41. The...
Only 3 real ones known....is this one of them? I doubt it. Last real one sold for $6600.
A fun Friday night for me! There is a huge thunderstorm going on, so sitting inside playing coins is very cozy.
Here are a few more, totally gratuitous pictures. :-) This photo is very close to what it looks like in real life, sitting in front of you....

I enjoy buying lots of unattributed coins (not sure if you got attributions on these) because figuring out what they are is fun and can be...
