<p>[QUOTE="rzage, post: 2028550, member: 14070"]Here's one to compare . The 1901-S is one of the most faked Barbers , the details just aren't sharp enough unless like said it was a dug coin and the sand wore them down . But I find that unlikely . Compare the angle of her nose , the ops coin is curved where this coin is straighter . Also look at the lack of detail in the protected areas , coins just don't wear that way , that's from a lack of detail in minting , most likely from a casting .</p><p><a href="http://coins.ha.com/c/lot-image.zx?saleNo=1189&lotNo=6376&lotIdNo=190150&inventoryNo=0&id=10446057" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/c/lot-image.zx?saleNo=1189&lotNo=6376&lotIdNo=190150&inventoryNo=0&id=10446057" rel="nofollow"> <img src="http://dyn1.heritagestatic.com/lf?set=path%5B1%2F0%2F4%2F4%2F6%2F10446057%5D%2Csizedata%5B450x2000%5D&call=url%5Bfile%3Aproduct.chain%5D" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p><br /></p><p>Image View: <a href="http://coins.ha.com/itm/barber-quarters/quarters-and-twenty-cents/1901-s-25c-au55-pcgs/a/1189-6376.s#" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/itm/barber-quarters/quarters-and-twenty-cents/1901-s-25c-au55-pcgs/a/1189-6376.s#" rel="nofollow">Normal</a> | <a href="http://coins.ha.com/itm/barber-quarters/quarters-and-twenty-cents/1901-s-25c-au55-pcgs/a/1189-6376.s#" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/itm/barber-quarters/quarters-and-twenty-cents/1901-s-25c-au55-pcgs/a/1189-6376.s#" rel="nofollow">Medium</a> | <a href="http://coins.ha.com/c/lot-image.zx?saleNo=1189&lotNo=6376&lotIdNo=190150&inventoryNo=0&id=10446068" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/c/lot-image.zx?saleNo=1189&lotNo=6376&lotIdNo=190150&inventoryNo=0&id=10446068" rel="nofollow">Large</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://coins.ha.com/c/lot-image.zx?saleNo=1189&lotNo=6376&lotIdNo=190150&inventoryNo=0&id=10446068" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coins.ha.com/c/lot-image.zx?saleNo=1189&lotNo=6376&lotIdNo=190150&inventoryNo=0&id=10446068" rel="nofollow"> <img src="http://dyn3.heritagestatic.com/lf?set=path%5B1%2F0%2F4%2F4%2F6%2F10446068%5D%2Csizedata%5B450x2000%5D&call=url%5Bfile%3Aproduct.chain%5D" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
