ExoGuy Pillar of the Community United States 4415 Posts	Posted 08/22/2016 9:38 pm Here are pics ... I doubt that this piece is genuine. The letters in the reverse legend don't look right to me. Might the digs on the reverse have been inflicted to remove the word "COPY" ? Oftentimes, on older copies I've seen, that's where the word "COPY" was positioned, at the central area atop the wreath.
