<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hobo, post: 550927, member: 11521&quot;]Welcome to CoinTalk, tc. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If I were you I would not pay for this coin. I have VERY little faith that it is genuine. It would be better to take a negative for non-payment than to pay over $1000 for a coin that is very likely counterfeit.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>From those photos it is hard to make a definite determination but it has the following going against it:</p><p><br /></p><ul> <li>The seller is in China.</li> <li>It is a raw 18th Century Silver Dollar. This type is HEAVILY counterfeited . . . in China (where the seller is located).</li> <li>This valuable (and heavily counterfeited) coin is not in a slab.</li> <li>The metal color looks like a typical Chinese counterfeit.</li> <li>The details are not sharp (which is typical for many counterfeits). Note the lack of details in LIberty&#039;s hair and the eagle&#039;s feathers.</li> </ul><p>I wish you would have asked about this coin before buying it. Oh, well.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Who knows? It may turn out to be genuine. And you may win the Power Ball tomorrow. Neither of those are likely to happen.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Good luck.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
