[QUOTE="mikenoodle, post: 1178414, member: 307"]From the pictures that you've posted, it is absolutely impossible to tell. I will say this: The 1916 SLQ is a very desirable coin and commands a premium, not a discount. A coin of this grade (seemingly VF or so) if genuine, would most likely be authenticated and graded by a reputable TPG. The fact that this coin is not TPG'd sends up many red flags. The fact that it is being offered at a discount raises many more. There are many fakes out there and one should not spend four-figures on a raw coin unless they are experts on that coin. An "opportunity of a lifetime" is usually an opportunity to get cheated like you've never been cheated before in your life. I'd pass on this one.[/QUOTE]
