luckycharms01 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 12/01/2021 12:56 am I don't know a ton about coins, but I understand that there are a lot of counterfeits out there. Is this one of them? Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

Most of these counterfeit coins have their origins in China. The font is one thing wrong on the coin. Always remember: "if it's too good to be true, it probably is!" Report this Post to the Staff
jacrispies Pillar of the Community United States 3848 Posts	Posted 12/01/2021 01:15 am to the CCF! This is a bad fake. Take a look at genuine examples online, and compare fonts, date, and design elements. It would be a very cool error, having the coin flipped over in the striking process causing the obverse to be struck over the reverse. Suffering from bust half fever.
