cboyera Valued Member United States 308 Posts	Posted 10/27/2016 8:29 pm Thank you! No purchase...so no return necessary. The 1811 & C on the reverse looked off but wanted to make sure. Report this Post to the Staff

TypeCoin971793 Pillar of the Community United States 6370 Posts	Posted 10/29/2016 08:17 am That big dot in the center is the diagnostic. Chinese fakes were made from the same hub, which had that dot. Genuine coins also have a dot in the center, but it is usually much smaller and finer, not large and fat like the one here. Report this Post to the Staff

True, but I don't know the diagnostics of the varieties of genuine coins off-hand. I have to rely on other things, such as that fat dot which is present on all dates of Chinese fake CB dimes. But yes, your analysis would be foolproof. Report this Post to the Staff
