swamperbob Pillar of the Community United States 5362 Posts	Posted 11/07/2014 3:06 pm I agree completely - be careful with this coin. There are several red flag issues and I believe it is very likely a Numismatic Forgery. I could be wrong but this date is extremely popular with forgers. I would definitely want to test the Specific Gravity and probably do an XRF test before I spent more than $30 US for this coin. Report this Post to the Staff

swamperbob Pillar of the Community United States 5362 Posts	Posted 11/08/2014 6:41 pm To me it looks as though the dies were made with the same tool set (die punches). Did the coins come from the same source? They both share off errors like the upper right lion's foot entering into the central shield and almost contacting one of the fleur-de-lis. Also many of the letter punches share identical anomalies. I would maintain an opinion of extreme caution with regard to these two coins. Report this Post to the Staff
