paleoguy45, I can't really tell from the photos you posted for sure. Is there a tiny die chip under the G of IGWT? Is the N of In recut? Any die cracks on the reverse (even tiny ones) you can find?

I believe this is a business strike and not a circulated proof, quite a nice piece too! There seem to be many die cracks on the reverse, I just can't make out if there is recutting on the lower right of the N in IGWT, but it looks like it. also can't tell if there is a small triangular die chip under the G in God. But I'd say it's a business strike from what I can tell.
PennyGuy is pretty knowledgeable as well maybe he can chime in on this one too.

 to the CCF This "1872" looks to be a poorly executed counterfeit. Here's a cropped pic of it. Compare the large date to that on a genuine coin.

Richflo - You are hijacking this thread with your own (obviously fake) coin. Please start your own thread.

Posting here was a good way to get WestCoin's attention, methinks. After all, he's our resident specialist on this series, it seems. I think suggesting he's a hijacker is a tad harsh. He's more like a hitchhiker, like me.

Richflo, definitely a fake coin, same coin from same Chinese dies that was first posted, date is all wrong. They are other problems but your coin is not real.
