<p>[QUOTE="ksparrow, post: 832418, member: 7638"]It's a very common Trade dollar issue. The photos are not good quality, it is impossible to say with certainty if it is fake or not. At the very least, it may be genuine, but cleaned to death. At worst, fake. If you don't know the series, and mainly want one for type purposes or just general interest, I recommend you buy one from a reputable seller in a top-tier TPG slab. Beware, though, fakes exist in the older, small white ANACS slabs(also fake). </p><p><br /></p><p>This thread might be of some help, although not in this case.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.cointalk.com/t63695/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cointalk.com/t63695/">http://www.cointalk.com/t63695/</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Good point by Conder, since the 1878-P was a proof only issue.
