I disagree. It's a really good counterfeit, because anyone can see it.

At the EAC Convention I spent about an hour at dinner talking with John Dannreuther and he told me that he has a collection of Three Cent Silver counterfeit coins, he has 16 different varieties of them and another friend has at least 13 more different ones than he does. Said he has been surprised by how many he has been seeing lately at coin shows around the country. I was surprised at the number he told me too, as I haven't come across any myself. But yep the ebay one listed above is certainly fake.
