<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bob Evancho, post: 5034630, member: 84595&quot;]It appears to me to be a very skillfully done alteration.&nbsp; The type 2 upset edge doesn&#039;t seem to flow properly into the field of the coin on picture 2.&nbsp; The weight is within tolerance of .194 grams. I usually use a 45 to 60 power bi-ocular microscope to determine counterfeit and altered coins for authorities.&nbsp; Further examination under a microscope by an authentication expert will reveal the true aspect of the coin.&nbsp; Although from what I see, I would not waste my money sending the coin out to authenticating experts, I would recommend, if you want to, you could send the coin to PCGS.&nbsp; Then report back here with their determination.&nbsp; Enjoy coin collecting.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
