[QUOTE="Eduard, post: 3094662, member: 8959"]Thanks, LordM for your extensive reply. You got me thinking about 'real or not'. I am not really a Capped Quarter collector So to be reassured I have checked HA archives searching for one showing the breaks on the obverse just to be reassured. Not that counterfeiters cannot fake die breaks...but that makes it just more unlikely, I would think. This one looks to be it: Browning B-4. R-2. This one is also XF details/cleaned. (Picture from HA archives). [ATTACH=full]781698[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]781699[/ATTACH] This example sold for $747 in 2005. Here is another, same variety but more recent. Also XF details improperly cleaned. This one sold for $552. [ATTACH=full]781698[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]781699[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]781701[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]781702[/ATTACH] After detailed comparison, I am satisfied the coin is genuine. The question is - what is a fair value?[/QUOTE]
