ExoGuy Pillar of the Community United States 4415 Posts	Posted 02/03/2021 12:28 pm Check out this ebay listing. The first two pics show what appear to be original 1787 Fugio cents, the second of which shows a cool, clashed die effect. The third pic may perhaps be a Chinese knock-off? https://www.ebay.com/itm/American-1....m1438.l2649 I see the seller's in China and has scant feedback. Judging from his other "coin" listings, the buyer of this so-called Fugio cent will receive a copy. Edited by ExoGuy 02/03/2021 12:39 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 02/03/2021 9:00 pm There is a fourth image in the auction description, another reverse image that doesn't match the first image of the reverse What I am seeing in this auction is a fairly nice genuine Fugio, and a copy of a new Haven Restrike. Considering the seller is in China which one do you think you will receive? Report this Post to the Staff

Considering the seller is in China which one do you think you will receive? My guess is a Wuhan restrike. The bids have about doubled since I made the post, drawing 15 bids so far. The more folks that take the bait and raise the bid, the more credible the listing will appear .... to some, I imagine. Report this Post to the Staff
