Ahh. I was afraid so, after seeing the significance of the coin, finding it laying around in an old dresser just didn't feel quite right. I could tell the two weren't a perfect match when comparing photos of real ones, but I felt it wouldn't hurt to ask. Thank you all very much!

 Did it made you wonder if you became an instant millionaire?  It's a poor copy of a very, very rare and valuable V-nickel. But who know, keep searching  Edited by Coconutjoe

John1, if you need the weight and diameter of that one you have a lot more learning to do.  |

Conder101, After all I do say I am not a pro. Just wanted to make sure the OP knows we take them seriously with their questions. When in question, weight diameter and magnet test. John1  |

To visually compare with a genuine 1913 Liberty nickel, search: Google Images - "PCGS 1913 Liberty nickel". There will then be no doubt in this case. The only way I will ever get a 1913 Liberty nickel, is if I find a fake example in a dealer's junk box, but have never made any effort to do so. |
