I think everybody ought to report this bogus dime to ebay. It's not even a rare date ... but it's as fake as fake can be. Liberty's nose has been broken, and there are 4 folds in the cap, instead of the 2 folds on a real one. Logotypes totally wrong too.

It screams fake, but ebay has done nothing about it in 3 days.

My Two Cents is I think it's real but it isn't as nice as the Seller thinks it is. Cleaned and no better than AU.

Others may think it's not real. Pictures do not scream "fake" to me. In hand, it might be a different story though.

Have you ASQ'd the Seller about it and voiced your concerns to him?

It's cleaned/polished but I doubt it's fake.

Looks OK to me as well. I wouldn't pay anywhere near that for that coin.

It is a BIT off putting with how shiny it is. Looks real but DIPPED.

I think the light is playing tricks and making the obverse look weird. Does not match any on AliExpress.
