<p>[QUOTE=&quot;norantyki, post: 8593935, member: 118879&quot;][USER=78719]@7Jags[/USER] I would be inclined to say that it is a genuine piece, as this mark shares several key diagnostics with Pridmore and the British Museum specimen 1905,0705.1 (I have personally handled this example, and believe it to be correct, not to mention that it was donated by Graham, who consistently seemed to know what he was doing). Particularly encouraging are the &#039;attached R,&#039; the slight indent to the top right of the c/m, as well as peaks of the crown.</p><p><br /></p><p>This being said, I also believe that the c/m has undergone some tooling at some point in its life, likely to &#039;improve&#039; a weak example. It is not at all uncommon to find such &#039;improvements&#039; on pieces that were handled by European (especially British) dealers in the late 19th-early 20th centuries.</p><p><br /></p><p>The above are both just opinions based on your photos - without seeing it in person, I can&#039;t offer a proper professional opinion. From what I see, it is a nice coin![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
