This doesn't look like a typical fake to me, byt sume details are obviously different from the original ones (for example the shape of rays next to the triangular eye at the upper part of coin). Is this some other die type or just a fake coin? Edited by ultra 06/05/2013 2:23 pm Report this Post to the Staff

I guess it comes down to what the seller is asking and whether you have that amount of money spare.
