Slider23 Pillar of the Community United States 4469 Posts	Posted 03/29/2016 2:11 pm The coin has an interesting die crack that starts in the denticles below the R in dollar. I checked about 30 other uncirculated coins on Heritage and could not find another coin with the same pattern of a die crack. If I could have found another coin with the same die crack, I would have taken a chance and purchased the coin. If this coin is fake, someone put a lot of effort to make this coin appear genuine.

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 03/29/2016 5:32 pm Is it my imagination, or could that be a single simple chop mark below the lettering at 2:30 on reverse? Report this Post to the Staff
moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 03/29/2016 8:54 pm Looks good as far as authenticity, but it looks dipped with some residue remaining. I've never seen a rectangular chop on a TD, which doesn't make it impossible that it is one. Regardless, it is a distraction. I don't love this coin. For $550 I would need to love it.
