<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Insider, post: 2606940, member: 24314&quot;]When Authenticating Thalers, keep in mind that the genuine coins have major differences.&nbsp; The photo provided gives us a good idea of what the design should look like and the counterfeit matches it closely; however, these coins were not made from one master hub and major discrepancies do not automatically make a coin of this type counterfeit the way a crudely executed Chinese fake Draped Bust dollar &quot;jumps out.&quot;&nbsp; That&#039;s why characteristics like the texture of the surface is often more useful than what the actual design looks like on these coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
