I bought a lot of 6 off of ebay, and the pics were blurry. Upon opening up the package, I felt they looked off - especially the head area. Opinions?

I don't like them one bit! I don't know US coins well but the obverse on that is horrific! faked because of the popularity of the W mint mark?

I don't really study my silver eagles but that face looks like a zombuck!

Edit: I didn't read your post first and I see you think the head is off too. Return them now!

I am not ready to jump on the fake wagon yet.

Need a better picture. Take pictures straight down
on the coin.

As stated the weight would help. And check out
the edge of the coin, the reeding should be perfect
on a proof coin.

Not from those pics....they look like proofs. Were they sold as such?

Image them out of the capsule and straight on...

Weights and measures will give you a pretty good idea. Calipers will give you diameter if you have a set.

I hope this image isn't too small...the image optimizer kept forcing me to make it smaller. But the weight IS one ounce, and it is non-magnetic.

The fonts are different on these compared to the real-deal. The sandals are different too.

Do they even have reeded edges?
