[QUOTE="goldmark, post: 1547981, member: 38168"]That sounds good, luckily the 1/2 isn't as affected as the larger denominations with fakes to begin with. If you still want to be absolutely sure you can contact Mr. Franquinet who is an expert on this field, the other option is asking for more opinions on your coin by visiting a [URL="http://www.numismatikforum.de/viewforum.php?f=18"]German coin forum[/URL] which would also require more detailed pictures.
