100% fake. Notice the lack of LIBERTY?

I hope you didn't buy any of your last three coins that are all counterfeit.
As I stated previously on your other coin, just bring up a photo of a
genuine coin and compare to yours. Check for any discrepencies in
the style to see if it is genuine or counterfeit.

Just like the other 2 coins, it's 100% counterfeit. If you compare it to a genuine example on PCGS, you'll notice many wrong and incorrect details. Like the others said, I hope you didn't pay money for any of these bad counterfeits.

Terrible counterfeit
