In your opinion is this an actual circulated proof or a re-tooled date?

I'm not saying I think it's a counterfeit, but I do find it odd. What are the chances that it's an actual circulated proof?

They would have to be tiny, but this sure is a nice-looking coin!

That is a counterfeit and was reported this morning on our counterfeit forum.
It should be removed before the end of the day.

The date certainly looks slightly different, but it could be just damage. The 8 and the second 7 should be closely examined in my opinion. I don't have the time to do so at the moment.

When it gets to the point that I'm thinking of spending that much money on a single coin, I would want it authenticated, i.e., in a PCGS or NGC slab.

This is a quite wonderful-looking coin, but I cannot believe it is genuine. If the Chinese have raised counterfeiting to this level we are in trouble indeed.

JimmyD, where's this counterfeit forum? I have seen more counterfeits on ebay and want to report them.
