    Lots of fakes out there, just wondering what you think. Looks like a lot of the Chinese fakes you see.

    I'm not familiar with this series at all but would love one in my collection.

    The "1" appears different than the other ones I seen for this date so I'm guessing it's fake.

    Weight is 23.4 grams.

    I'm no expert on these scarce and rare Dollars---but here's an example currently on bid at Heritage and already approaching a $10.000.00 bid:

    Thought so, they're asking $4500, would be a steal if it was real. Thanks everyone.

    No size reference but way too heavy to be a half dollar, and way too light to be a real dollar coin. That right there is enough to condemn it as a fake without even looking at it.
