    Look closely. I can't find a single thing that doesn't match the OP's coin. Even the rev rotation matches. And yeah, there are other examples where the rev is not slightly rotated, but that one is.

    There are several key differences between all of those and the OP's coin.

    Now all of that said, I can't say for certain that the OP's coin is genuine or not. But I can't find/see anything that makes me think it isn't.

    The only way to determine if it is or not is with an in hand examination by someone qualified to do it.

    Sorry Doug, but I disagree.

    I see many areas that set off alarm bells, some of the more obvious of which are:
    • Thickness of the downstroke in the "9"
    • Protrusion of bust through the top of the "9", rather than barely touching it
    • Length to width (aspect) ratio of "N" in "ONE"
    I can go on, if necessary.

    TC, I could also continue on, however IMO, there’s no reason to critique a counterfeiter’s work - other than to let the fraudster improve his or her “craft”.
