Classic Coins Pillar of the Community United States 874 Posts	Posted 11/19/2020 10:33 am Hi All, A friend sent me photos of this 1876-S Double Eagle, and would like opinions on whether it looks authentic. He doesn't have a scale to weigh it precisely. Please comment. Report this Post to the Staff

nss-52 Moderator United States 29498 Posts	Posted 11/19/2020 10:57 am The weight would be off due to the extra metal for hanging it. FREE OPINION: genuine Show your appreciation for the Coin Community Family (click here) Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 52124 Posts	Posted 11/19/2020 11:19 am Agree, looks like the real thing. Report this Post to the Staff
Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 2532 Posts	Posted 11/19/2020 11:58 am Looks genuine, but since it's only worth a bit over melt anyway, the best thing is probably for him to take it to a jeweler to test it for gold. Report this Post to the Staff

whatdowehavehere Valued Member Canada 68 Posts	Posted 11/23/2020 9:20 pm Just look at the milling... that should tell you immediately Report this Post to the Staff
sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 17604 Posts	Posted 11/23/2020 9:57 pm File the loop of and weigh it. Need a really sharp focus picture of the edge milling. So far, I think it appears to be genuine, and has taken wear as a jewelry piece. Report this Post to the Staff
whatdowehavehere Valued Member Canada 68 Posts	Posted 11/23/2020 10:04 pm The reeds look like Doric columns, with slight flareing at the top and bottom. Look at an 1870's minted Morgan for an example of what you should see. Yuh yours is Genuine no doubt, a Fob (there seems to be a real lack of true circulation marks) for the Centennial...
