JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21620 Posts	Posted 07/29/2021 1:04 pm to the CCF I'm sitting on the fence on this one because of the wear, it is hard to see details. If you are not sure if it is genuine, why did you post it on ebay? You are supposed to know these things before posting. Report this Post to the Staff
kenrmorris New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 07/29/2021 1:07 pm I was on the fence. I put ice on it and it melted super fast. Magnets wont stick to it. ITs about the right weight. Short of taking it a dealer, I dont know what else to do. Report this Post to the Staff

oriole Pillar of the Community Canada 5246 Posts	Posted 07/30/2021 06:20 am It should weigh 27 grams. This is significantly underweight: a serious red flag in my opinion. Report this Post to the Staff
