louisvillekyshop CCF Advertiser United States 1306 Posts	Posted 01/16/2020 05:45 am That is an important sought after coin so it will be counterfeited in my opinion. Your photo, when right clicked and downloaded to my desk top, blow up with very high resolution and there is not a spec of encrustation on the coin. Plus most of these available in normal circulation for a reasonable price are very worn down. So for those three reasons I'd just assume fake sorry. (Yes people will mention what they think are casting bubbles on the reverse but I would not assume one way or the other this was cast as important coins people take time making well.)

Kamnaskires Pillar of the Community United States 7066 Posts	Posted 01/16/2020 09:22 am Good advice from Joe, above. For comparison - especially with regard to the legends - the OP coin with one from the fake reports. Unfortunately the fake reports coin is very low res.

Novicius Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 1168 Posts	Posted 01/16/2020 10:48 am Thank you both for the advice, it is much appreciated. The starting price wasn't exactly cheap, so I'll be giving it a wide berth. Many thanks, Jim Report this Post to the Staff
