Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 08/10/2020 7:03 pm Agree. It also lacks the "Shallow N" reverse that is characteristic of this date. How did you find this? Report this Post to the Staff

CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 08/10/2020 9:08 pm That date would be a red flag upon first glance. Surprisingly the rest of the coin looks fairly decent. -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff
fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 3670 Posts	Posted 08/10/2020 11:47 pm I've seen this reverse before. It was on a different date coin. Off the top of my head, I can't remember where I saw it. The circled markings were one of the diagnostics. Does anyone else remember where this one was mentioned? Report this Post to the Staff

just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 08/11/2020 09:16 am I could see why someone put it in their album. It does look nice. Great fake though. Report this Post to the Staff
