AU50 - but hard to tell the photos aren't really sharp in focus or large enough on either coin you put up.

Between $30,000- $125,000 you defintely don't want to buy a coin like this without guarntee it's real, this is one of the most faked coins made. PCGS, NGC and only from a reputable dealer, otherwise it's FAKE.
From overseas (not in USA) I"d run away from this coin as fast as possible! Unless it's from a reputable dealer like SPINKS anybody else is not worth the effort.

If I had an expensive coin and "didn't know" if it was genuine, I'd sure as heck would be finding out. ebay says if you "don't know", you are saying it's genuine. New policy is you can't sell replicas, even if you sell them as fakes.

How about posting the listing, so we can choose whether to deal with him.

mysterimen- I'm sure by now you prolly feel we're trying to keep you from collecting US coins so we can have them at cheap prices. Nothing could be further from the truth, we are trying to keep u from throwing money away on "bargain" fakes. Most of the coins you posted would immediately be seen to be fakes, even by beginner collectors in the US. Instead, they sell them in Portugal, where most dealers and almost all collectors have never seen a real one to compare. A 93s is worth thousands of dollars, even in very worn condition. Most US dealers have never had one. If they do, they prolly had it certified by experts. No one is going to sell such a coin cheap--remember, they can find buyers in the US just as easily as you found them--the Internet is everywhere in the world, even in villages where they pedal bicycles to make electricity for their computers. DO NOT remove names from pix. If we can look at other items they offer, we may find they have many fakes. --Your friends at ccf.

They are produced mainly in China with pot metals. It costs them less than 5 cents a copy to produce. Your friends here on CCF are trying to save you and your interest in coins. Spending spot money for these imposters will definitely sour your outlook.
