[QUOTE="iPen, post: 2946618, member: 69760"]Do you think that this raw 1892 Korea 5 Yang silver coin is genuine or fake? However, it's quite rare and I'm unsure if the die markers are matching up. The last two pics show a proof version of the same coin from Heritage Auctions. Maybe that's unfair to compare a proof version of the same coin, but I feel that it highlights the details better while the die may be the same one used for the circ strikes since only about ~20,000 circs and ~13,000 proofs were struck. Thanks in advance!
