Exactly what I thought , it's how Doc got fooled , his looked like a Type I /II micro S variety in the pic one of the rarest '75-S Trade dollars ....
Since you have it in hand and say it's not wear , MS-63 . Even with the dark obverse it's a pretty coin .
What a low life . At least you took the high road as always Doc . May all their fakes develop verdigris . And such a bad fake when you see it up...
Put me in the can't tell club . The pics need to be clearer . But I'll go with a technical AU-58 . If it is MS no higher than 63 , love the...
So you're telling us you can pick winning coins that will only go up in value . If this is true how many of said coins are you sitting on as you...
Very nice , I'd rather have a coin with most of the design , than a so called problem free G-4 . Nice find .
Now I like the toning better than a blast white coin . Oranges and apples I guess .;)
Dang close to a 60 in my opinion . Hits aren't supposed to lower a grade below MS as it's all about wear in the lower grades . Large hits could...

Doc I could see how the pics could have fooled you . Looks like a Type I/II micro S . Too bad it's fake .
There's plenty of information out there for 20th century coinage . I finished my 20th century set awhile back . Basically there's the Redbook...
Do you have a pic . Are the bars the same as on the reverse or incused like someone squeezed two coins together in a vice .
Since I really can't see it too clearly (too small) I can't say for sure , but the die could have chipped at that spot . Did you look at Tom's...
A large pic of the reverse if you can . Maybe the die was filled with grease where the one was and wasn't transferred , but without a decent...
The Op said the weight was right on . It does have that color of some Chinese fakes . Though I'd love to see a close up of the rim .
It's a beauty Larry , I'd put it at around $400 . Though I'm not sure in the US . Great color on it too .
