Looks totally fake to me. I like this one "I have had it looked at by a local coin collector and they did confirm it was authentic." That really gives me confidence. His 1916-D mercury looks fake as well. There's a reason these fakes are trying to be sold raw.

Here is my thought process; Begin 1792 Half Disme raw == fake. End

In the description he says he's a skeptic and is going to have it graded. But then lists it in an ebay auction. Yeah, I think we have a counterfeit 1792 Half Disme.

Picture suggests that it is a 'raw' coin. And I mean really raw! Picture needs a lot more 'cooking', to make it appear less 'raw'!  Real cookies would taste better
