Phil310 Pillar of the Community United States 1101 Posts	Posted 08/25/2020 10:36 am This 1804 Half Cent is not genuine, but another of the many reproductions with the reverse copied from the 1804 C6. https://www.ebay.com/itm/1804-Drape...AOSw8vtfRQWD Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 08/25/2020 2:02 pm Yep C-6 rev and the obv is based on C-11 and 13 (same die and it was NOT a crosslet 4 die) but they used an undated hub and punched the date into the die, the date figures are too small and not positioned to match any of the known varieties. I sent the seller a notice that it was fake and the reasons why listed above. We'll see what he does. He doesn't seem bad, his feedback is pretty good, most of the complaints seem to center around slow arrival of the coins and the shipping method.

Phil310 Pillar of the Community United States 1101 Posts	Posted 08/25/2020 3:58 pm The listing was ended. Good work. I'm guessing the seller probably didn't know until you guys told him. Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 08/27/2020 08:16 am I wondered if he would pull it or not. The response I got back from him was Dear conder101, I assure you this is not a fake coin. Thank you I didn't write back and assure him it was.

Phil310 Pillar of the Community United States 1101 Posts	Posted 08/27/2020 09:36 am I wonder why he chose to remove it if he was so sure it wasn't fake. It's an obvious fake to anyone familiar with Half Cents. I think he must be like a lot of other ebay coin sellers that don't want to take the time to learn about what they are selling. I hope he doesn't just wait a week or two and list it again. Report this Post to the Staff
Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 08/28/2020 02:52 am Probably Coinfrog and I were not the only ones that pointed it out to him and maybe he decided with many people telling him it was fake he should pull it and get it checked. Like I said he seems legitimate and if so he didn't want a fake coming back to bite him Report this Post to the Staff
Phil310 Pillar of the Community United States 1101 Posts	Posted 08/28/2020 11:30 am You're probably right Condor101. Hopefully he can get his money back from the person he bought it from. Report this Post to the Staff
