First thing you should check is the weight of your coin. It should be 1.41 grams. As your coin looks nearly uncirculated, I would say any variation from that would suggest fake. Also, is it magnetic? The second 2 of your coin looks weird when I compare is=t to images out there of authentic 22/1's. But I dunno... Report this Post to the Staff

I do have a photo of the reverse side which I will attempt to put up. Report this Post to the Staff
