I agree....the '1925' date looks different, so I would say it's a fake.

The shape of the "5" in 1925 is a dead giveaway
that is easy to spot.

I remember seeing a topic on how to spot a fake in the past but I can't seem to find it now , can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks

On the 'made in China' 1925 coin, they used the same font as the 5 in the denomination, and put it in the date... Do a search on PCGS or Heritage Auctions to see real 1925 coins, and pay attention to the '5' in the date, compared to this one.
