Albert Pillar of the Community United States 1915 Posts	Posted 08/13/2017 3:18 pm Those bumps can indicate extra metal that does not exist on a genuine coin. I collect these and I have large photos of genuine and fake. The fake I have does have bumps but they are quite severe and obvious. My fake also has characteristics I don't see here. This coin looks a lot more like my genuine than the fake I have. Report this Post to the Staff

Numister Pillar of the Community Singapore 631 Posts	Posted 08/13/2017 10:54 pm The King's ear wax (bumps) also concern me that's why I asked and the person selling this coin had many more of the same coin, so it just rang a little alarm bell in my head, but I still bought it anyway.
