<p>[QUOTE="mrshmooze, post: 1578778, member: 38868"]Gotta be a fake, but the front 2 feathers look ok to me. Also the last feather in the head dress points between the "I" and the "C" in "America." Every fake I have seen the last feather points between the C and the A in America similar to the later Indians, such as the 1909. The material isn't porous, and the weight a few hundreth's of a gram light (acceptable imo). Problem I am having is that it is a highly counterfeited, ungraded coin that is not at a certified coin dealers location. Guy has other coins that I know are genuine, but I am weary to buy. If legit, the price is about 1/3 below my estimated value/grade.</p><p><br /></p><p>Your thoughts.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]217696.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]217697.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]217698.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]217699.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
