It's fake. Don't try convincing yourself otherwise. It is almost exactly the same as the one I got from the no-no site (though mine is an 1803).

The reverse appears to be based on the B-2 reverse, none of the four 1801 varieties have that high B in LIBERTY.

Sorry but the stars are a dead give away that this coin is not authentic.

The stars, the hair detail, the shield detail. Its all off. The Chinese make these and hope that they can cast enough doubt in buyer's minds to sell it for a couple hundred dollars. I'd recommend not encouraging them by buying coins that are questionable and never buy one without a lifetime authenticity guarantee.

Next time I will consult
Google Images first before making a comment.
THEN I might be more able to join in with the experts in this field.
So may we all. Google Images is a good research tool for this purpose.
