Something about this coin just doesn't look right to me. I could be way off base but the reverse looks weird. Would appreciate input as I am trying to enhance my knowledge of Morgans.

It can be really hard to tell if it's a fake or not, now days. Some of those fakes that come from China are so good that it's down to the last detail.

Some of them are even made from silver as well. Make sure the size is right and if you buy it, set it on a scale to see the weight. You can even take it to a coin shop nearby and have the dealers look at it. If you don't like it, return it. Assuming you have that option.

if you know the proper mintmark style, size and placement, you can make a much better decision of rolling or not rolling the dice, I dont know squat about morgans so I cant help ya, ill be in the Seated dime section.
