The real deal is an 1861 Paquet Reverse which would be worth hundreds of thousands or a million dollars, so yeah, fake. Jeff

I have followed this thread for a while, and am suspecting that the OP may have forgotten to hit 'subscribe'.

That is true for the San Francisco business strikes but it was made in proof on the two Philadelphia pattern pieces. Note this doesn't have an S mintmark. It's intended to be one of the pattern pieces.....but it is still a fake.
