<p>[QUOTE=&quot;abes, post: 468593, member: 16327&quot;]<b>trip to coin shop</b></p><p><br /></p><p>I took the coin to &quot;Treasure Island&quot;, the local coin dealer and was told by a rather young man that what I have is indeed a fake coin.&nbsp; It is smaller in sized when compared to (I think it was an 1895 Barber) and more of a light bronze/copper color than the more obvious silver one we compared it to.&nbsp; I would still like a second opinion of course and will try to get some photos of the coin available as I can.&nbsp; If it is counterfeit, why? And, why make something that appears to be somewhat genuine in appearance, but incorrect in size and color?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
