[QUOTE="Insider, post: 2397500, member: 24314"]First, I wish to apologize for the following statement as all of us have different training, experience and expertise. We are all here to learn and I hope all the hints members gave to detect this fake were helpful. My comments are NOT directed to you. Now, I am not speaking of gold fakes that are "repaired" on purpose to take ones eye away from the obvious. Most of that stuff is as CRUDE as the OP's coin and any [COLOR=rgb(89, 179, 0)]coin dealer[/COLOR] or "Ex-Pert" :facepalm::vomit::yuck::yuck::yuck: who cannot tell a piece like this is a crude C/F (cleaned or not) in one second WITH THE ORIGINAL POSTED PHOTO will be put out of business in a very short time. :( And good riddance I might add as they are bungling-up a great hobby. Incidentally, the professional authenticators call this type of work: "chocolate" referring to the gold colored wrapped candy.[/QUOTE]
