<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SuperDave, post: 2367659, member: 1892&quot;]OK. Now I have to begin wondering if it&#039;s real at all, then. Assuming these aren&#039;t artifacts of the imaging process, the numeral alignments in the date are odd - the 4 seems high, the differential in diameter between the two lobes of the 8 exaggerated,&nbsp; and the 6 too large. On the reverse, the N&#039;s and the E&#039;s differ too much from each other (although other examples show that difference between the N&#039;s), and the upper ends of the wreath are weird although generally in keeping with the true coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Which begs the questions, why fake it, and how was it faked so close to the correct weight?</p><p><br /></p><p>Still fascinating. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
