<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 808724, member: 112&quot;]Appreciate the thought Matt, but really no need. I could accept everything about the coin except for one thing - the misformed letters in the legends. Those are there, and I don&#039;t need to have it in hand to see that they are there.</p><p><br /></p><p>Those misformed letters,combined with the other things are what convinced me the coin was fake. I have never, ever, seen another one with O&#039;s, and I think it was the F if memory serves, like that coin has. It just wouldn&#039;t happen.</p><p><br /></p><p>Let me give you an example. This is a French coin, but notice the extra F. Now I have an excellent selection books on French coinage, and this coin (variety) is not in any of them. Even the guys at cgb had never seen this before. But I finally managed to find another one in an auction catalog.</p><p><br /></p><p>I guess the point I am making is that even with obscure varieties there is always another example out there to back up authenticity. And with your coin, there isn&#039;t.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
