This coin looks all wrong to me. Maybe a poorly cast try to make an error coin. What do the experts think?

The area left by the off-center strike looks too thick and the obverse and reverse don't look to be from a mint strike as they don't line up correctly. The amount the coin is off-center seems to be different on each side also.

Earlier this week Mike Diamond noted that Fred Weinberg had examined that coin and determined it was a counterfeit.

If you missed this coin the first time it was on ebay, it's back now in all it's glory. Nothing looks right on this coin.

251524717563

The first time it was listed at $999.00, the second time it was listed at $99.00 and now it's listed at 99 cents.

It has one bid, so it will sell if ebay doesn't pull the listing again. It's strange, but I almost want to bid on it just to see it up close. If it stays at 99 cents I may have to try.
