<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TypeCoin971793, post: 2941454, member: 78244&quot;]So a guy posted this coin on Facebook, saying he dug it up metal detecting and cleaned it. A couple of loudmouths don&#039;t believe his story, and are saying he is using a counterfeit he bought to garner attention. So is the coin authentic, and what is the variety?</p><p><br /></p><p>The closest I could come up with is N-26, using the original edition on Newcomb&#039;s book. I am not 100% sure of that attribution, though. There are at least 10 varieties I have not explored yet as they are not included in Newcomb&#039;s book.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]716335[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]716336[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>A couple uncleaned shots</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]716337[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]716338[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>A Chinese fake for comparison.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]716339[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
