<p>[QUOTE="Mike Roo, post: 3658501, member: 106316"]thank you, this is the first coin that I believed to be counterfeit but I have sent back coins mainly because the pictures did not tell the whole story... lots of sellers are now scanning their coins which gives you a clear view of scratches etc, but the color and luster can't be determined, I have yet to see any picture that tells me if a coin has the double cartwheel. Polished coins can sometimes be difficult to tell. I have alway bought from inside USA, and with sellers who have good feedback. But when I get a coin and don't like it I have the choice to return it. I do not have any good coin dealers in my area so I consider part of this the shopping process. I am sure I could see a picture of a coin, go to a shop and not be impressed with it first hand. I started by just buying gold and silver and that is relatively easy, but coins are harder, and even though I research I still find I need help. Places like this are invaluable.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
