The coin appears good- the metal is copper-nickel,so the greenish copper spots could appear. I am not familiar with the purple or white colouring on copper-nickel (more usually on zinc or on tin) but it certainly is possible. I don't see anything that would make it a forgery.

DagonX Valued Member Poland 392 Posts	Posted 03/28/2012 1:09 pm In my opinion it's the genuine coin. But there is always some doubts. Especially when you bought a rare coin for only 30$... Anyway, thanks for your opinions! DagonX Report this Post to the Staff
