<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1053956, member: 66&quot;]Passing would have been a very good idea.&nbsp; The coin in question is almost certainly a fake.&nbsp; The 1&#039;s of the the date ar too tall and thin and the reverse die does not match that used on either of the two known 1811 varieties.&nbsp; &nbsp; On both the C-1 and C-2 the leaf point below the M is just left of the right upright, the berry below A2 is to the left of the center of the letter, and the leaf point below A3 is below the left foot of the letter.&nbsp; On the subject coin the leaf point is below the space between the M&amp;E, the berry is right of the center of the A and the leaf point is below the right foot of the A.&nbsp; So someone is now out almost $1300 for a Chinese copy.&nbsp; Not such a bargain after all.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
