You mean because it isn't "this" color ?...........(this is one of mine)
1803-Large-Cent

If his "photography settings" or "lighting" isn't the reason for this "silver/zinc coloration, then you think this is counterfeit ?
OH ! NOOOOOO !....

Fooled the heck out of me. Wow. In hand, I probably would have thought different. The fact you said ICG, figured it was Gen.

I would think ICG would know a real coin, I was making
a roundabout comment that the color needed some tweaking.

Although I appreciate the sarcasm, the color is actually brown in hand. It was cracked out of an ICG, problem free slab.

Edit: I missed your last comment. Yeah, I'm going to try to take a better picture tomorrow.

Judging from your pics, it almost looks "thicker" than most other DBLC.

You guys are funny.

The pic does make it look slightly corroded or pitted though.

Must be me since no one else appears to be asking the price, I'll do that. So how much was that coin? Did you get it via the internet? I'm just nosey.

Seems a bit porous or is it just the photo? Either way, I still like it and it has good details on it.

There was a thread on it about a month ago. It was from ebay I believe and somewhere above $500 if I'm not mistaken?
