What are the signs this coin is fake?
I see no tool, casting or manipulation marks to get the coin to look correct.

The only thing I see is that the coin would be totally be unique for a strawberry cent. However there were many varities of this cent.

I see patina, wear, and build up from many years. Can this coin be a very old counterfeit?

Any community help would be appreciated in educating me. Thank you very much.

There is no way you can get an opinion without pictures. You can get some excellent feedback from the members here when pictures are properly posted.

Pictures would be vary important. There are two varieties of Strawberry leaf cents, one is unique, and the other has only three known specimens. There ARE counterfeits of these coins and there are also electrotypes known.
