Wheatpenny1 New Member United States 14 Posts	Posted 04/21/2020 2:13 pm I found this wheaty coin roll hunting about 2 months ago. It seems to be in pretty good condition but I have my questions about its authenticity. Any input from the forum would be great. Report this Post to the Staff

Wheatpenny1 New Member United States 14 Posts	Posted 04/21/2020 2:32 pm Thats what I was thinking too. Too many things wrong with this coin. I had a sliver of hope that maybe it was real. Oh well, onto the next roll. Thanks everyone. Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 04/23/2020 9:47 pm Rims are sharp frankly too sharp and doubled/wire rimmed. Coin has most of its mint luster, central devises are weak and mushy with maybe VF detail. By now red lights should be flashing, claxons and sirens sounding. Report this Post to the Staff
merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 04/23/2020 10:53 pm The rims are the first giveaway. This is a heavily counterfeited coin in general, and this looks to be one of them, sorry. Report this Post to the Staff
Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5786 Posts	Posted 04/24/2020 06:26 am Thanks T-Bop for pointing out the incorrect angle of the date. A sure sign of it being fake. In general, it looked fake to me also and that date was the easy clincher. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.
