The first part of my earlier post had only to do with how awfully common it is on this forum for the "fake" crutch to be thrown around, and how doing so only contributes to the regretable paranoia that helps no one. Is the coin clear enough to say with absolute certanty and beyond the slightest doubt that it's genuine? No, but enough can be seen that it lends much to the likelihood of authenticity. Now, I assume I know what you're referring to, but for the sake of clarity, when you say it is "[I]different[/I]", what exactly is [I]your[/I] concern?[/QUOTE]
