I don't know anything about older coins but I recommend trying to get a clearer picture and post both sides of the coin. Report this Post to the Staff

Also, please crop the picture and make sure that it is right side up. Report this Post to the Staff
jfransch Pillar of the Community United States 1801 Posts	Posted 07/10/2021 7:48 pm 99.9 percent sure it is a reproduction. I do not think there are any real examples in that high of grade. There are thousands of reproductions out there. Report this Post to the Staff

kbbpll Pillar of the Community United States 4233 Posts	Posted 07/12/2021 5:57 pm The D and S's are wrong versus a real one, and the X is too small. I believe it is a fake based off of a Dickeson copy, seen here https://coins.ha.com/itm/colonials/...bnail-071515. Report this Post to the Staff
