Look at the cleft under the sniffer, at how straight down that comes. That's indicative of a genuine. Did your dealer explain the reason he opines it's a counterfeit, or did he just tell you he like almost every dealer submits coins to PCGS and NGC? This one still has questions, you ask me. It could be an altered 1914 Philly, that's about the only realistic possibility, it's an added mark. One thing I know, no dealer can tell you that, not on a coin in this condition. If that's a question, you need an analyst, not a guy who sells coins. Personally, I'd let ICG handle it. They're the more honest. Just my opinion. Submit it to them, see whether they'll attribute it. You've questions on it, you won't get the "blow off," they'll answer them. Lestways, in my experience.[/QUOTE]
