murrellington Pillar of the Community United States 3276 Posts	Posted 10/09/2012 10:46 pm http://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/...8100676.html he has it advertised as an 1882 but it looks like an 1892 to me. I know the photos aren't great, but can anyone spot anything that might make this fake? If I try to meet up and check it out what tests should I do to determine if it's real? Just weigh it? Anyone have an idea what a coin like this would sell for in this condition? Report this Post to the Staff

And I would wager he won't take less than $100 for it, but my hunch it is steel. The fact the stars are so proud yet the rim is almost gone makes me suspect, but I am far from an expert.

SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 10/09/2012 11:34 pm This is a no-win situation. He can't even read the date properly. There are a couple of hard rim dings, enough to keep it out of a slab even if it is genuine. Not a chance he'll accept a reasonable price. Report this Post to the Staff

Moe145 Pillar of the Community United States 8904 Posts	Posted 10/09/2012 11:50 pm IMO, it's an 1892 CC. A pretty smooth one... SsuperDdave has pointed out the obvious rim dings. I, personally, would not pay more than around $50 for this. I agree, this is probably a "walk-away" situation and the seller would not understand why his coin is a "problem" for most numismatists.

D0ubl3Eagle Pillar of the Community United States 5854 Posts	Posted 10/09/2012 11:50 pm The pictures are a bit too small and not clear to say with certainty that its real but I don't see anything off the bat that would condemn it. The grade might be around a VGish details, cleaned and rim damaged. After looking at some auction records for comparables, my guess of value might be around $60-70ish. Report this Post to the Staff
Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 10/10/2012 4:23 pm since he says it a tougher one to get maybe he just made a typo and knows its a 1892 because there is nothing tough about a 1882-CC Morgan to find Report this Post to the Staff
