[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 798945, member: 112"]OK, now for some tool marks on the obverse. First pic, look at the back of the hairline. See all the the little ragged pints sticking out. None of those are there on genuine coins. 2nd pic, look at the neck line, see the raised marks in front of the neck as well on the scarf. And the raised mark between the R and the ending dot. 3rd pic, look at the E. You can see where the E was first engraved, by mistake, and them moved and re-engraved in the correct position. The arrows point to the bottom, middle and top legs of the E. It's quite plain. edit - still not finished so wait before replying, please[/QUOTE]
