Is this one counterfeit? Why so shiny? Or was it just polished? I wouldn't buy it, just asking. Apparently this coin is one of the most commonly counterfeited US gold coins.
Yikes, that's an ugly coin. Hard to say for sure if it is fake. It is almost too shiny to really tell. I can tell you though, as someone who bids on almost every one of these on ebay, I will not be bidding on that one.
