Whether it's fake or not is impossible to tell since the seller used a stock photo without mentioning it was a stock photo in the listing, which is false advertising (a Google image search on "1852 large cent" quickly brings up the picture in question). I'd bet anything that whatever the buyer receives isn't anywhere close to being as nice as what's pictured. Edited by Kefiroth 11/15/2014 7:40 pm Report this Post to the Staff

IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36684 Posts	Posted 11/16/2014 11:35 am I think it's genuine. Looks like the photos were cropped too much and eliminated most of the rim. Nice high grade Large Cent. Report this Post to the Staff
vermontensium Moderator United States 16677 Posts	Posted 11/16/2014 4:39 pm IGE, it's a stock photo which I didn't realize at first. That coin is genuine, it's just not the one he is selling. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
