I've been on the fence before, but these dollars are clearly fake and I'd hate to see someone actually buy them. I've reported them over the last day but they're still up

The seller has over 4000 feedback with 100% positive... How would they not know....

There are many subtle differences on these.
The thick bottom on the L's in dollar, the canoe, King Georges face, etc.
Do a side by side comparison and you will notice them

The font of the lettering looks too large.

If you look below the "GE" in George, and above his ear, you'll notice on both coins the raised metal bumps from casting. Plus the pitted look of the coins, and the terrible fonts (especially the dates).
I'm 100% confident these are fake. They have those leftover metal bumps in the same areas of the obverse which is odd
