<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paddy54, post: 2742930, member: 19250&quot;]It&#039;s&nbsp; not fake the op sent me some better images of the coin as well the areas in question .He also sent me some images of a 65 variety. Granted&nbsp; the images&nbsp; aren&#039;t the best and I did call it an 002 when in fact it&#039;s&nbsp; an 001 variety . The two are very close in nature of the variety&nbsp; the 002 the stronger pups. Yes possibly&nbsp; it has been whizzed&nbsp; or cleaned. From the images given that&#039;s&nbsp; something&nbsp; you would need to see in hand.</p><p>The op also explained to me where and how he obtained&nbsp; the&nbsp; coin .... not likely&nbsp; again it was counterfeited.</p><p>There are some heavy&nbsp; hitters IHC varieties&nbsp; as well dates...this one isn&#039;t .&nbsp; </p><p>One has to realize&nbsp; that in the condition&nbsp; of the said coin you&#039;re&nbsp; only talking&nbsp; about a $30-$60 coin with the variety.</p><p>So faking a coin that has little or no real premium&nbsp; unless in mint state is kind of fruitless.</p><p>The other point is the interest&nbsp; level on the 2 varieties&nbsp; is low at best...again pointless to fake a coin that has no real bang for the buck . If you&#039;re&nbsp; going to fake a specimen&nbsp; why not something&nbsp; worth while ?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
