[QUOTE="Umrk, post: 1829590, member: 59653"]Thank you for your replies. First, the coin in question, as well as the second provided in the photo below, are from a substantial collection. I took the magnet suggestion with the humor it deserved. However, considering the source of (my) collection, I am not so quick to discount the authenticity when I consider the other coins that came with it. Obviously, no one is privy to the info I have, so no offense taken. Nevertheless, I included two other photos of the 1803 version of the same coin. I know that the 1804 coin was not minted in that year - I was using this version, however, as a model against which I compared the coin in question-as well as photos on other web sites. So, with the additional (hopefully better quality) photos, and another coin to compare against - your thoughts are appreciated. As a reminder, I am looking for the telltale sign proving its authentic OR a copy. At the very least, I may go to bed holding tight to the dream that I have won the proverbial lottery for a few hours longer. Thanks Again! S[/QUOTE]
