[QUOTE="mikem2000, post: 1385406, member: 30574"]The stars are correct, this is a starred reverse, paired with a non-starred obverse. It also has the onward and upward eagle, which indicates it is not from the re-strikes that we're minted in the 1850's and 60's. The more than 10 available is a mistake. Interesting enough this guy does sell replica Gobrecht's but they are sold as replica's and are uncirculated. He sells these with more than 10 available, so he probably started with the same "template" [url]http://www.ebay.com/itm/1836-Gobrecht-Dollar-Mint-Replica-Set-UNPARALLELED-/360110049253#ht_1428wt_922[/url] So, is this coin real, I don't know, but I do not see anything that screams fake. The denticles look good to me so I don't think it is a cast fake. Now, of course you would have to be nuts to buy the coin for several reasons besides being a possible fake. It is near impossible to sell from the pic's what scratches are on the coin and what are on the plastic. Also, it is way, way over priced if it is real. Interesting though, would a guy who openly sells replica's try to sell one as real? Mike[/QUOTE]
