    Thanks. Hadn’t even looked closely. Told the owner immediately that if it’s not graded, it’s probably counterfeit. That’s why I posted it first on here.

    It may be me looking (glancing) at Morgans in flips inside a plastic album page but many of them may have a polished appearance.
    I also agree with others that the Trade Dollar is likely a fake.
    Just my opinion that nobody asked for. YM/OMV.

    Happy Collecting.

    Trade dollar looks fake to me. Look at the details on Liberty's head and hair. dentils are weak to non existent in a number of areas on both sides. Has an overall granular look to it. I believe it's cast.

    Just getting them out of the flips. Haven’t found any that were polished, yet
    Stay tuned

    I wouldn’t stop there . . . The mint mark on the 32-D quarter is chased. It’s too big, and the surrounding depression in the field is a dead giveaway.

    Variety Slabbing Service. I believe a member of ours, Messy Desk owns it.
