vermontensium Moderator United States 16677 Posts	Posted 11/07/2008 5:45 pm Got a good price on this a while back, thought I'd share. The fact that someone damaged it is a shame. Still a cool piece I thought. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff

foundinrolls Pillar of the Community United States 3507 Posts	Posted 11/07/2008 9:13 pm Hi, I hope Mike D. takes a look at this one. I don't want to say one way or the other but something just hits me about this coin that I can't place a finger on that makes me uneasy about its authenticity. I am not saying that it is a fake and I'm not trying to rain on the coin and it could be totally legit but It just feels funny somehow. Thanks, Bill Report this Post to the Staff

vermontensium Moderator United States 16677 Posts	Posted 11/07/2008 9:32 pm Thanks foundinrolls for the concerns. I bought it from a reputable dealer at the Long Beach Coin Expo. I believe it is the real deal but I would love to have Mike comment. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff

vermontensium Moderator United States 16677 Posts	Posted 11/07/2008 11:29 pm I will admit I thought it was strange to see the impression of the collar. I'd love to hear more opinions! swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff

KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 11/08/2008 12:18 pm That's a very interesting coin! Out of curiosity, I found another off-center 1916 for comparison (taken off Heritage). Report this Post to the Staff
vermontensium Moderator United States 16677 Posts	Posted 11/08/2008 6:41 pm Thanks KurtS! Looks like you can see the collar on that one too. TreasHunt, I will probably submit to ANACS at Santa Clara. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
