foundinrolls Pillar of the Community United States 3507 Posts	Posted 08/29/2008 2:32 pm The coin is a fake...send it back from whence it came. Don't waste time imagining why it might be genuine. It isn't . If you paid for it, get your money back. If the dealer was an ANA member, they have to give you your money back. If it was ebay...your probably stuck but then let us know who sold it to you so we can avoid them in the future. Thanks, Bill Edited by foundinrolls 08/29/2008 2:35 pm Report this Post to the Staff

junjiesalvador Valued Member Philippines 212 Posts	Posted 08/29/2008 9:13 pm Gee Guys. Thanks for the help. I knew it, it was too good to be true. He is a local dealer (not an ANA member)where I get some of my coins sometimes. He promised a refund should I find anything wrong with the coin!. Lets turn this learning experience to our advantage - let all those who have never seen a genuine Liberty Head Qtr Eagle that this sort of a coin is fake! Much obliged guys. junjie Report this Post to the Staff
Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 08/29/2008 10:35 pm here is an original qtr. eagle (notice how mushy the details are on the coin you have compared to this one) If this is a local dealer that you say you deal with some times I would question every other coin you have gotten from this individual also. I would also avoid this dealer in the future, because if he didn't know that coin was fake he doesn't need to be dealing in coins, and if he did know it was fake and sold it as original that is just a bad person all around and either way its someone I don't think I would want to deal with Report this Post to the Staff
