CoinHuntingDrew Pillar of the Community United States 4932 Posts	Posted 12/19/2015 09:14 am I honestly think this is a honest AU details cleaned coin. Report this Post to the Staff
TypeCoin971793 Pillar of the Community United States 6370 Posts	Posted 12/19/2015 11:12 am Mm style is correct. It does look like a heavily-polished AU coin. But with the recent bump in the quality of counterfeits, I'm no longer sure. An in-hand inspection is a must for me to say with 100% certainty one way or another. Report this Post to the Staff

beaglebailey Pillar of the Community United States 716 Posts	Posted 12/19/2015 1:10 pm This coin is totally lacking in details. There is no definition to the wreath or ribbon on the reverse or the feathers on the obverse. Date and mintmark are to thick. Looks fake to me. Report this Post to the Staff
