TypeCoin971793 Pillar of the Community United States 6370 Posts	Posted 06/03/2015 08:36 am Looks good to me. The crack is actually a good sign for it to be authentic. The depression just looks like a hit. The eye gets me, though it could be a die chip. I see no typical characteristics of counterfeits on this coin. In fact, the luster and the contact marks make this coin look impeccably genuine. I guess finding out your 1915 quarter eagle was counterfeit is making you cast doubt on the rest of your gold collection? Report this Post to the Staff

I have a dollar piece with a mark,but my "evestigetion" shows,the coin is ok:) https://goccf.com/t/180666&whichpage=1 I've bought the 1915 quarter,didn't look at it good at home, and I threw it in the deposit box,that was my mistake Report this Post to the Staff
