I was looking through the Indian Heads on ebay and this one popped out as really weird looking. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1860-indian...em2a2fd15f1aThis guy has 3 of them for sale all in different conditions. They all have pointed busts and the denticles are thin and widely spaced. |

I'm not a expert in counterfeits, but these look normal to me, and no one is going to get rich auctioning off Dollar plus coins with free shipping.  [waiting for others to chime in] |

An 1860 should never be brown like that. He's selling a 1909-S that looks horribly retoned. His coins have definitely been messed with.

It's an obvious counterfeit.

The 1909-s that raymo mentioned looks suspicious too. The second feather tip is almost pointing to 11 o'clock. That one's over $330 at the moment. Hopefully its real, I think I would stop collecting if I was duped into spending that much on a fake.

His 1909-S is also counterfeit.

He pulled the 1860 but just couldn't bring himself to pull the 1909-S listing.

Speaking of fakes, I bought a fake 1876 that came with the two coins below. I requested a refund for the coins except a dollar for the two culls below. Do these coins look okay. Just asking since they came with a fake but do not see the motivation for counterfeiting these.  |

The other two look genuine, just culls.
