swamperbob Pillar of the Community United States 5362 Posts	Posted 11/10/2014 9:26 pm I routinely search the internet for counterfeits hiding in plain sight. I ran into a very nice one earlier today. This coin sold as genuine in 2010 for 900 pounds ($1426). The owner needs to buy my book before he makes the same mistake again. The coin is a Sheffield Plate Class 1 very well known type. Anyone care to enumerate the myriad of mistakes visible on this one. You would have to be blind to think it could be genuine. Edited by swamperbob 11/10/2014 9:27 pm Report this Post to the Staff

GERMANICVS Pillar of the Community Germany 1849 Posts	Posted 11/11/2014 11:01 am I am seeing an untypical bust, grossly cut and slightly oversized letters and numbers in the legends, and the numeral '2' in the date missing a tail which all genuine examples have. Report this Post to the Staff

It hurts ... <LOL> ... I meant in the pocket book ... JPL Report this Post to the Staff
swamperbob Pillar of the Community United States 5362 Posts	Posted 11/11/2014 10:29 pm The price here is a real stretch. I have three examples one better and two not as good but I would not go over a couple hundred. Fourteen hundred is too high. Report this Post to the Staff
