[QUOTE="Hobo, post: 613773, member: 11521"]RUN AWAY!!! This Trade Dollar may be a fake. Notice the spike to the left of the 8 in the date and the raised lump above the second 'L' in DOLLAR on the reverse. The coin appears to have been polished (maybe by a counterfeiter to hide some of the defects). The obverse devices have definitely been tooled (maybe to strengthen the weak details that counterfeits often have). A raw Trade Dollar on eBay is enough reason alone to RUN!! RUN AWAY!!![/QUOTE]
