The pic of the reverse is nice and clear and the obverse pic is a mess. Seller: boos65* 122076414657 * Edited by Staff - Images added * Report this Post to the Staff

This is a proof coin, with a barely perceptible doubling. The seller's photo does not meet ebay policy, but some ignorant buyer may think it is the "famous" one since the photo is sort of "doubled".

Buddy Rest in Peace United States 7075 Posts	Posted 08/23/2016 10:29 pm Thanks for getting the pic posted. And, yeah, the photo stinks. It appears to me that the lighting angle is intentionally deceptive. Anyway, not a counterfeit -- just a stinky photo. Thanks for the help. Report this Post to the Staff
edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 08/24/2016 12:31 pm Yeah, looks real to me, with bad photos and bad price. Lists for only $200. Report this Post to the Staff
