Message:: [QUOTE="TazMage, post: 1151516, member: 29540"]Here it is.  I do notice that the ST appears to be slightly higher than the other letters, and this may be indicative that this coin is indeed a fake, however, to be fair, I've seen other legit coins that seem to have this same flaw due to wear.  I'm not saying that is the case with this coin,...just saying.   In the picture at NGC's website, the U is noticeably LOWER than the R, but if you look closely, the R and U are even at the bottom here. Also, if you notice, there is also some black around part of the L in LIBERTY, and some around the T and Y in the same word as well (not visible in this photo though), and there is black around the inside of the rim as well, so it's not like the date is the only spot on the coin that has "gunk" around it. I posted a pic of a legitimate 1943 IGWT for comparison purposes.  It isn't as worn, but you can see the positioning of the letters. I'm not taking a "yes it is" type of position because I don't know, that's why I made this thread to begin with.  I'm just trying to debate the issue to get as accurate an assessment as possible, thanks.  <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> [ATTACH]119036.vB[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]119042.vB[/ATTACH] <img src="http://www.cointalk.com/images/misc/pencil.png" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]
