I came across this ebay listing, for a German coin from WWII. Something doesn't look right about the coin, and the seller is located in China, where counterfeits have been coming from. What do you guys think? http://www.ebay.com/itm/WWII-GERMAN...ultDomain_0&hash=item19c8eeeef8#ht_848wt_1187
Few letters kind of show wear, unless it was a weak strike. Possibly cleaned and retoned, but nothing screams fake.
doesnt look fake. cleaned yes. plus he is a top rated seller of coins and would be unlikly to sell a fake
In addition, there is little sense in faking such a common and inexpensive coin. I have not seen any fakes of these and I'm constantly dealing with foreign coins.
good point. this is the second most commen date + mm for this coin type with over 34000000 being minted
