<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Revello, post: 7835853, member: 103898&quot;]I am so totally gun shy of purchasing raw Indian Head cents in online auctions, as I&#039;ve been stuck with several counterfeits.&nbsp; For me, those have been the toughest to decipher whether they&#039;re counterfeit based on auction photos -- many of those counterfeits look so much like the real deal.&nbsp; Slightly abnormal numerical digits in the dates, and slight &quot;bumps&quot; indicating possible cast manufacture, are the only real gauge I&#039;ve been able to use, assuming the photos are clear enough to do such an inspection.&nbsp; The next toughest coin type in trying to determine authenticity for me, based on photos, has been raw Mercury dimes.&nbsp; I have a collection of counterfeit coins I have accumulated over time.&nbsp; I like to complete Dansco albums, so I tend to look for decent raw coins for the albums.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
