Looks authentic but has been cleaned which
would probably give it a Details grade

Thanks for your replies. I'll try win that auction but I won't bid more than $100.00 or do you think, that it has greater value?

The CC mint mark is too close together and doesn't match the mint mark position of any of the 6 known VAMs for that date. So my opinion is it's counterfeit.
Rest in Peace

I agree with Zurie. The mint mark is wrong, especially the first C. Authentic coins have the C's almost closed.
Overall the coin has the look of the painted on Chinese patina that has been partially polished off.


Counterfeit indeed....

Looks like this auction ends tomorrow with bids now close to $200. Buying a CC Morgan dollar on a Czech auction site--what could go wrong...?

Just by the appearance, I would social distance from this coin.

Was this counterfeit struck?
