<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Publius2, post: 25922402, member: 105571&quot;]I went back and re-attributed this coin and confirmed that both sides match all the attributes of the S-65.&nbsp; Additionally, I took photos of the edge (see below) and confirmed that the edge devices are the correct B edge of 1794 with the points of the leaf next to R in DOLLAR pointing &quot;up&quot;, i.e. up towards the top of the R.&nbsp; Note that lettering is mirror-reversed since I used a flashlight reflector to capture the edge.</p><p><br /></p><p>It seems extremely unlikely to me that a counterfeiter would go to all the trouble of ensuring that obverse and reverse match to a correct die pair and also ensure that the edge lettering is correct.&nbsp; (Are there any cast counterfeits known with edge lettering?).&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>So, was the TPG lazy?&nbsp; Did they not want such a scudzy coin in one of their holders?&nbsp; If they thought or suspected it was counterfeit, what were the tells?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1650357[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
