CoinAddiction New Member United States 37 Posts	Posted 11/25/2019 7:47 pm Hi, any opinions on this 1800 draped bust dollar? It has 12 arrows... It apparently has been cleaned but still has luster. this was a $40 purchase! Report this Post to the Staff

paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 11/25/2019 9:57 pm Hate to be the bearer of bad news but I'm pretty certain you dropped $40 on a fake, unfortunately. I would recommend that you get your money back if possible. If there is any doubt, it needs to be sent in for professional authentication at PCGS, NGC or ANACS.

CoinAddiction New Member United States 37 Posts	Posted 11/25/2019 10:06 pm This is actually why I ask. I have noticed the date and America seems to be a little off from where the "real" ones land along with a couple other hmms. I just didn't want to come out and say it first so I could get opinions without planting suggestions.. Thanks a bunch! Report this Post to the Staff

The Chinese have been making fakes of them for years. There are probably more fake ones out there than there are real ones. Report this Post to the Staff
