<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Randy Abercrombie, post: 3967142, member: 92655&quot;]Being new to collecting is a magical time. Holding all that history in your hands is a spectacular feeling. What you probably don’t know yet is that the folks here that have decades of experience with coins have become attuned to looking at a coin cautiously. Our hobby has been infected with a virus of Chinese counterfeits. It is a sad state. So don’t let that jade your newfound joy...... I would suspect that if you traded with a reputable dealer then you likely have a genuine coin. A reputable dealer knows what to look for and they have far more to lose by knowingly selling a phony coin. Welcome to a great hobby.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
