<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1984255, member: 26302"]To me, its a pretty scary fake. Look at the reverse, nothing weird going on here. Now, the obverse, the edge of the obverse die deviates from the edge of the coin at the bottom. It cannot be a mint error unless there was massive doubling throughout the coin, right? So, my only conclusion is its a fake where they simply laid out the beading incorrectly. Unless one of you error experts could explain to me how the rim got double struck without the entire obverse doing the same, I would classify it as a not so believable Chinese fake, (most likely).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
