akdragon907 New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 02/20/2014 6:49 pm There is a guy in my area who is selling this coin via craigslist for $50. I am relatively new to coin collecting and am looking for some opinions on this buy from more experienced collectors. My big concern is that it might be fake. I have uploaded a few images of the coin with this post. * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

unholyroller Pillar of the Community United States 1903 Posts	Posted 02/20/2014 9:54 pm Definitely not an error. Is the old squeeze job. Mash two coins together in a vice or smack them with a hammer against a hard surface. That is why the reverse is so flat and lacking detail. Report this Post to the Staff
