[QUOTE="Leadfoot, post: 1420384, member: 2972"]Fake? Really? Shield doesn't look off to me.... What, specifically, looks off to you? This one shows same rim effect: [url]http://www.ebay.com/itm/1856-Seated-Liberty-Half-Dime-Choice-BU-NICE-ORIGINAL-/400136539548[/url] As does this one: [url]http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=318&lotNo=5857#Photo[/url] Note the following in the detail: "The denticles are indistinct--a not uncommon feature for the issue" [img]http://images.ha.com/lf?source=url%5bfile%3aimages%2finetpub%2fnewnames%2f300%2f2%2f8%2f6%2f2%2f2862768.jpg%5d%2ccontinueonerror%5btrue%5d&scale=size%5b450x2000%5d%2coptions%5blimit%5d&source=url%5bfile%3aimages%2finetpub%2fwebuse%2fno_image_available.gif%5d%2cif%5b%28%27global.source.error%27%29%5d&sink=preservemd%5btrue%5d[/img] Again, the rim doesn't bother me in the least -- looks like die crumbling you'd see on a large cent -- apparently no different from others of the same date/issue. Comparing the OPs coin to the two pictured above, what, specifically, looks off to you? LIBERTY and the shield look good to me, but maybe you're seeing something I'm not....Mike[/QUOTE]
