I have made a little research and it looks that the 1906 coin always have the king with rounded head. Any opinnion about this coin? YOu can see a rounded shape under the 6 number.

Yours looks to be about a VF+/EF condition. I really want the coin to be authentic, but look at the detail under the 6 number. I uploaded 2 more pics to show it better. It looks like a little rounded lifted shape under it, I dont know how to explain it better. Is it possible for someone to modify a coin melting silver and add or modify a 6 later?

Arkie Pillar of the Community United States 2637 Posts	Posted 08/03/2021 5:03 pm I thought from the 6th photo that it looked like it had been 1900. Report this Post to the Staff
gxseries Pillar of the Community Australia 3831 Posts	Posted 08/03/2021 7:11 pm I can see the concern and I would ask for a refund especially if you paid big money for it. The field is disturbed and that's never a good sign.
