There is an extra bit on the rim, obverse 10 oclock. Reverse rim doesn't look right. Wear is impossible ie obverse UNC & reverse VG There are others on ebay exactly the same - listed by known fraudulent sellers.. Watch your top knot

I'm not an expert on how these fakes are made.
Possibly a Die Transfer fake ?

So you advised him that it was clearly fake and then he went and sold it on ebay without any warning to potential buyers. Hmmm.... |

 with echidna. Wear differential impossible enough to be considered as fake. A trial die pressure adjustment strike would show the same amount of detail on both sides May? be genuine, but it is hard to answer the question as to why so much differential wear. Test for comparative ping tone with known genuine .925 silver Florin. |
