Hi members,

I got this crown size specimen recently and find it very suspicious to be a counterfeit and post the pictures here for your comments. I have no experience on this coin and find there are some details that are too crude but the weight of the coin is okay. Thank you for your help.

Specification: 26.21 gr and 41.4mm.

I really dont know much of these pieces, but someone here does. Let's see if he shows up. I appreciate your concern on this less than crisp example

I'm very suspicious of this one, too. I'd want to hear a good reason why parts of the design, on both sides, have faded away to nothing when other parts right next door are clear, sharp and deep. I'm not seeing such radical contrasts on genuine examples sold elsewhere.
