<p>[QUOTE=&quot;davidh, post: 2134261, member: 15062&quot;]Two things point to its being a modern replica - it has the appearance of being cast rather than stamped, and simply having been found in the bottom of an old bucket of auto parts makes its originality suspect.&nbsp; Here - <a href="http://www.pcgs.com/photograde/#/ContinentalDollar/Grades" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.pcgs.com/photograde/#/ContinentalDollar/Grades" rel="nofollow">http://www.pcgs.com/photograde/#/ContinentalDollar/Grades</a> - are pictures of several in different states of wear.&nbsp; You can compare yours to these.&nbsp; You&#039;ll see that the lettering looks different, the date position is off and the field on yours is bumpy rather than smooth, a sign of a casting.&nbsp; But when you get right down to it, pictures aren&#039;t the best way to determine authenticity; a trip to a coin dealer might be the best way to go.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
