CoinHuntingDrew Pillar of the Community United States 4932 Posts	Posted 04/14/2015 5:10 pm I'm not so sure. It's probably authentic, however there's so many fake/added mintmark CC's out there. The CC looks like it may be some sort of VAM variety. Report this Post to the Staff
ploprof New Member Bulgaria 16 Posts	Posted 04/14/2015 5:12 pm Yeah, the CC looks strange thats why I decided to ask . Report this Post to the Staff
saturn60 New Member United States 22 Posts	Posted 04/14/2015 5:18 pm Why don't you post 2 close ups of the CC, it looks a little mushy. Right now I'm leaning 60% in favor that it hasn't been added. Edited by saturn60 04/14/2015 5:18 pm Report this Post to the Staff
eagle_eye_18 Valued Member United States 449 Posts	Posted 04/14/2015 5:18 pm If you are under the gun and not sure then I would pass on it. The obverse looks harshly cleaned with all those horizontal hairline scratches on her face. A also agree the mm looks weird. Report this Post to the Staff
ploprof New Member Bulgaria 16 Posts	Posted 04/14/2015 5:21 pm As I wrote, the coin is not in me. It is on online auction site and it hae only those two photos. Report this Post to the Staff

saturn60 New Member United States 22 Posts	Posted 04/14/2015 5:36 pm Taking this kind of risk is not the way I would find a deal on a coin, but to each his own.. Edited by saturn60 04/14/2015 5:41 pm Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 04/14/2015 5:41 pm Why does a damaged coin (look at the top of the reverse) leave you in Emergency Mode to buy something you don't know enough about to authenticate yourself? No. Don't buy this coin. Don't buy any coin in this fashion. The help you need fast is to listen to someone advising patience. Report this Post to the Staff
ploprof New Member Bulgaria 16 Posts	Posted 04/14/2015 5:43 pm Because I dont have enought money for AU UNC coins. Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 04/14/2015 5:44 pm Then buy it and find out the hard way why you shouldn't have. Either way, we'll help. But not under a time deadline. Report this Post to the Staff
