The "6" in the date logo is completely wrong. Fake.

This coin was found in a rental house taped under the sink in a small purse. I apologize for posting only one of the three coins found there. I assumed one would be sufficient to ascertain legitimacy, but maybe all posting three would help. Here are the other two. I would assume if one is fake they all are. Maybe a prank? Thanks again for any help. Truly appreciated.

Imaimee—I think you were wise to doubt those coins.

I'm on the fake boat. That 57 is atrocious, no offense.

The 2500 FE cents minted were all proofs, and they're $10k in VF. So you've got $20k taped under a sink, and that's enough for me. Sorry.

Try seeing if they stick to a magnet. Try weighing them if possible. However, based on that 57, I'd say all fakes.
