malissadawn Pillar of the Community Canada 1931 Posts	Posted 07/30/2009 12:27 am nice. Though in my defense you asked for grade so I looked at high points and field condition. I didn't inspect for counterfeit. Report this Post to the Staff
coinsrfun Pillar of the Community Canada 693 Posts	Posted 07/30/2009 12:31 am Please do not take offense. I am just attempting to show/make wary the novice collector. Malissa, education is our only hope. :-) Report this Post to the Staff
coinsrfun Pillar of the Community Canada 693 Posts	Posted 07/30/2009 12:32 am They even copied the 44 Nfld small cent? Report this Post to the Staff
daviscfad Pillar of the Community United States 4541 Posts	Posted 07/30/2009 12:51 am It looked like an EF grade to me but I know nothing of the series thats why I did not comment before. but as malissa said you asked for grade not authenticity thanks for the lesson. I will grade it EF-fake Report this Post to the Staff

coinsrfun Pillar of the Community Canada 693 Posts	Posted 07/30/2009 12:07 pm The individal who owns the coin/s apparently 47 in total (all Newfoundland)is doing articles for CCN. We must be careful. Report this Post to the Staff
DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 07/30/2009 1:33 pm Quote: Counterfeit from China Hmm...if that's obvious from those pics, perhaps you could describe the tell-tale signs of this particular forgery? Outside of some weak denticles on the reverse, I don't see anything glaring. The portrait looks very true to the coins I own--which I sincerely doubt are fakes, LOL. Malissa, what does this coin weigh? Report this Post to the Staff
coinsrfun Pillar of the Community Canada 693 Posts	Posted 07/30/2009 2:33 pm The 7 is wrong, the L and the N have blobs not flares. For 3 quick markers. Report this Post to the Staff
malissadawn Pillar of the Community Canada 1931 Posts	Posted 07/30/2009 2:42 pm well, a real one is supposed to weigh 2.33 grams. I am going to come back and post a picture of a lower grade 1947 of mine to compare to so people can see the difference. (hopefully) Report this Post to the Staff
DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 07/30/2009 2:45 pm Thanks...I'll give it some thought. I have to admit, I'm skeptical anyone would go to that much trouble...because the portrait looks good. Report this Post to the Staff
