NumisRob Bedrock of the Community United Kingdom 17883 Posts	Posted 09/15/2021 3:46 pm I've just spotted this one on ebay, from someone in Wales who doesn't normally sell coins. Looks like a Chinese fake to me! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/143863391178 My Trade List: https://goccf.com/t/194596 My Wants List: https://goccf.com/t/191710 Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 09/15/2021 6:12 pm Thanks. I Googled "1844 Silver Dollar - Images" and saw many date logos that looked exactly like this. Just curious. Report this Post to the Staff

Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6381 Posts	Posted 09/15/2021 11:33 pm Yep, clownish date digits, mushy detail, and the look of some non-silver alloy. Wonder if the seller knows; it's certainly not hard to ID this one as a counterfeit. Report this Post to the Staff
