<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MrOrange1970, post: 2847970, member: 80547&quot;]I don&#039;t know about the back leg being suspect but the s does look very z-like.&nbsp; Not sure how if it was a fake, it would have gotten out there though.&nbsp; The only thing that I could think might happen is that someone tried to fake it then failed a a TPG? Then released the experiment back into the wild?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I have looked for varieties of the S mint mark as well as fake 1924-s&nbsp; and can&#039;t really find much information or images.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Someone in the know, could they explain how a forged S could be put on a coin like this?&nbsp; I&#039;ve heard of gluing, etc, but this doens&#039;t appear to be glued.&nbsp; It still looks more like a thinner S smushed to look closer to a Z with maybe PMD?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I would agree with @Paddy that I wouldn&#039;t buy this coin based upon the images (300 is a steep price range for uncertainty).&nbsp; I guess question would be would you folks feel it worth the price to send off to a TPG with the chance of a bodybag?&nbsp; I could always go to the ANACS booth at the next local coin show and see...of the grading services, this would be the lowest gamble price.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
