Spence Moderator United States 34461 Posts	Posted 06/27/2021 11:20 am @ame, first welcome to CCF. Second, I moved your thread over to the world coin forum so that we can get some good eyes on it. I will say that these fat-man dollars are extensively faked and yours may very well be one of those. In the meanwhile, can you please post the weight? Thx.
