<p>[QUOTE="phankins11, post: 2029317, member: 70703"][USER=59737]@Seattlite86[/USER] i went to NGCs coin explorer this morning and compared a 1927 2.50 Indian to the ebay listing...this was a great excessive. The date is the biggest giveaway here. On these 2.50 Indians the dates have inner lines in them...its the only way I can explain it...you have to see it to know. Along with the date the whole head dress detail is much sharper on a genuine coin, and on the obverse, again the lettering in the 2 1/2 dollars is a dead give away. FYI I'm no expert on these, but I am starting to expand my counterfeit detection skills because I will be bying these at some point in the future and I want to make sure I know a fake\forgery when I see it. </p><p><br /></p><p>Here is the ngccoin link to the 1927 2.50 Indian head.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ngccoin.com/coin-explorer/indian-head-250-pscid-58/1927-25-ms-coinid-17951" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ngccoin.com/coin-explorer/indian-head-250-pscid-58/1927-25-ms-coinid-17951" rel="nofollow">http://www.ngccoin.com/coin-explorer/indian-head-250-pscid-58/1927-25-ms-coinid-17951</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks [USER=20480]@ToughCOINS[/USER] , keep'em comin'.
