If in doubt, BUY it at the price of a fake coin, (if you can). If it proves to be a fake, add it to your reference collection of fake coins. If it proves to be genuine, you are well ahead.

Let somebody else take the risk.

$2.50 for some education/reference is not bad at all.

Those pictures are ridiculous in today's 'everybody has a great camera in their pocket world'.
Get better pics and go from there.

The rim looks too wide. Don't buy it.

Regarding OR I saw them two weeks ago. What a party they throw at Autzen. But it's not my party and I won't be back. I was much happier paying $11 to watch the Beavers lose to Utah in 2 OT's than $140 to see the Ducks curbstomp Washington. The Reser seats were better too.

My Two Cents worth, pun not intended, if you can't see the overall condition of any coin(s) in a good clear picture DO NOT BUY IT regardless of price. Odds are that the seller does not want you to see any problems the coin(s) may have or, the coin(s) he sends you is(are) not the one(s) in the photograph.

You have received some great advise from the CCF experts ... I agree that without better photos I would stay away.
