Both are very crude, even my 83 year old grandfather noticed they weren't authentic (got on the topic how I've been IDing counterfeits while eating turkey, as he asked the question when I mentioned my 1914 D that I bought for $96, how I knew it wasn't a fake)...LOL!


Just your average chinese counterfeits. Same person most likely, low feedback & has sold counterfeits in the past. Also from same area. Two different accounts with similar coin = most likely same person.


Another dead giveaway is that the first guy's username is "authenticamericancoindealer"...that just sets him up for even more disaster.

It is the same seller with two different accounts (at least).

Lincoln looks strange on the second coin, which looks like it started life as a 1999?

Typical no-no site coins. You can tell by the fuzzy portrait of Lincoln.

Usually if they are bad pics, like so, I don't feel like it's necessarily worthy of grabbing pics too.
