<p>[QUOTE="calcol, post: 2713952, member: 77639"]Saw a Bailly trade dollar pattern, J-1315, on eBay (see URL). At first, thought it was just worn and abused. Closer inspection makes me think it's fake. There's the flying cabbage between the face and right hand. But close inspection of the hands compared with images in Coin Facts (see URL) makes it look very iffy. There are other irregularities too. Seems a strange coin to fake. Not many real ones exist, they're all expensive, and pattern collectors usually aren't novices.</p><p><br /></p><p>eBay: <a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1873-pattern-Trade-Dollar-/201895343369?hash=item2f01e67509:g:hWAAAOSwB-1Yy11h" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1873-pattern-Trade-Dollar-/201895343369?hash=item2f01e67509:g:hWAAAOSwB-1Yy11h" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/1873-pattern-Trade-Dollar-/201895343369?hash=item2f01e67509:g:hWAAAOSwB-1Yy11h</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Coin Facts: <a href="http://www.pcgscoinfacts.com/Coin/Detail/61601" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.pcgscoinfacts.com/Coin/Detail/61601" rel="nofollow">http://www.pcgscoinfacts.com/Coin/Detail/61601</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Cal[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
