$950 shipping from Hutchinson, Ks.... 13 - 25 days to ship, member since April 6, 2015 and no feedback rating... if that doesn't scream "buy me, I'm counterfeit"

I don't like the date or the stars, or In God We Trust.

Cannot possibly be real, aside all the poor surfaces and weak details. All 1893-S Morgans have Far Dates, and this one doesn't. Already gone; anyone claiming to be in Hutchinson, Kansas and charging $950 for "shipping from outside the US" ain't lasting long on ebay. |

Stars look fuzzy could be pic but they are right about the date.

The first thing that I saw was the unnatural luster in the fields. I have several counterfiets myself, and this coin matches the surfaces of some of them to a T.

The definitive diagnostic is the incorrect orientation of the date (dentil not directly under the "1" and no upward slant to the date as a whole).

The appearance of the surfaces in an image cannot be used as a determiner of authenticity. A slight difference in lighting can completely change that appearance, and any silver can be made to look like this under the camera.

I'm calling fake, due to the position of the date with respect to the stars and the lowest portion of the neck of the bust.

Fake - Look on the reverse at all the lines by the last A in "America" and raised bubbles by the "I" in United, big RED FLAGS right there, they happened when the transfer die was created.

As everyone who has mentioned - date position is wrong. No need for me to look at anything else. (drop microphone and walk away)
