fioti Pillar of the Community United States 4212 Posts	Posted 05/07/2019 4:28 pm There are lg. & sm. motto varieties for this date. Maybe w/the date, as well. Looks like there's a missplaced date variety also. Edited by fioti 05/07/2019 4:31 pm Report this Post to the Staff

52Raymo Pillar of the Community United States 8516 Posts	Posted 05/07/2019 4:37 pm Look at the mushy left hand side arrowhead and the end of the ribbon. Also at 9 o'clock on the obverse there's a raised dot on both. Oregon coin geek.....* GO BEAVS ! ! ! * Report this Post to the Staff
numismatic student Bedrock of the Community United States 11880 Posts	Posted 05/08/2019 6:40 pm Here is a comparison of the vertical lines in the shield of the coin I purchased vs. the known? fake. The vertical lines on shield on the coin I purchased are spilt in three as they should be. The fake shows little to no definition in the splitting of the vertical lines. Not sure that this fake coin example shows that the coin I purchased is fake. Report this Post to the Staff
