Andrew99 CCF Advertiser United States 1533 Posts	Posted 03/14/2018 12:44 pm Mushy details, raised rim, odd wear pattern. Fake. Report this Post to the Staff
ron6788 Pillar of the Community United States 655 Posts	Posted 03/14/2018 1:04 pm It almost looks like a silver round. Here's the original horrible pic: Keep in mind this Craigslist person makes no claims about the item and just wants to trade it for something. Maybe, they'd go for my monkey medal: Probably, more rare and valuable than the round. At least, I had to earn it. Report this Post to the Staff
TheCoinDom Valued Member Belgium 186 Posts	Posted 03/14/2018 1:14 pm It's not a silver round, it's a Chinese-made fake called the 'Lightweight' counterfeit: http://drapedbustcoins.reidgold.com/page_7.html Report this Post to the Staff

It is very enlightening and upsetting, too. That "Die-Hard" fake had me fooled. Report this Post to the Staff
