Paul Bulgerin Pillar of the Community United States 3098 Posts	Posted 03/26/2018 6:37 pm I came across the auction for this 1862 Liberty Seated half dollar on ebay just a few minutes before it closed. It was sitting at a low price, which may have been a tip-off. The date looks wrong to me, so I suspect it's a fake (?) Thoughts?

Paul Bulgerin Pillar of the Community United States 3098 Posts	Posted 03/27/2018 5:34 pm Glad I picked up on the coin's strange appearance. Fortunately, I didn't bid on it. It just looked too funny. Most others must have noticed the same thing as it sold for only $21. Thanks for the responses. Paul Bulgerin Report this Post to the Staff
