Looks like Chinese junk to me. If that's supposed to be MM position #3 it's not rotated clockwise like a real one.

Looks artificially aged to me. too much wear on the bust to have bright, original red up in the legend.

It's close to MM position #3, but an overlay shows that it's not an exact match, so definitely counterfeit.

1st coin is no doubt real...real fake.

Even with the crappy pictures it's an obvious fake. Another fine product made in China.  Lincoln Cent Lover!VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/

It may have come out of the same shop as this classic fake that's been around for years:   Edited by BadThad

someone offering to sell it, he said he was offered 700 for it from 2 different dealers. I still would want to have it looked at before making an offer Now you know you're dealing with a complete fraud. Not only is the coin fake, he's a liar on top of it. |
