silverbulls8 New Member Canada 21 Posts	Posted 04/22/2017 02:14 am I know the picture isn't going to do much justice and I have not had time to get down there to look in person yet but thoughts? I am pretty skeptical about authenticity but am not an expert by any means. Only picture they have up on the site currently. If I can get down there in the next few days I should be able to take better pictures. They are going up for sale at a reputable local auction company next week but there have been times where I explained that coins were fake to them. If this is in the wrong forum I apologize in advance. Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 04/22/2017 03:17 am I've done quite a few auctions, both sides. That's a lotta Seated Libs to be in one auction! That alone and none slabbed! is a big, big red flag to me. Think I saw an 1878 Trade in there, those are indeed notorious fakes, got one meself! Just looked again...ah, ha,ha,ha...even a "hogmouth"! And unpeso's too! Offer $10 for the lot, once you know the fakes, a real one is hard to miss! Edited by Crazyb0 04/22/2017 03:22 am Report this Post to the Staff

silverbulls8 New Member Canada 21 Posts	Posted 04/22/2017 12:22 pm Thanks everyone. Probably not even worth the trip downtown to take pictures then.. but I should give the auction house the heads up in case. Pacificcoin - Hey Jack these are at Kilshaws if it matters. Report this Post to the Staff
