I believe this is a known fake from the Chinese no-no website.

 I believe I have seen a few of these exact fakes posted in here before. |

, THANK YOU, and I thought it had to be fake, and does anyone know how they make these fakes, probably a stupid question, but just curious if anyone had any ideas on how they do it, thank you again

Probably a casting process.

Fake, but I'm not sure why it couldn't be struck with non-mint dies.

Looking at the IGWT and the date you can see that the rotation of the 'doubled die is counter-clockwise - you can see that the leading letters and numbers are above the first set. BUT, with Liberty, those letters are rotating clockwise. That cannot happen they should rotate in the same, direction not both.

China can do a lot of things; you would think they would have done a better job. These are horrible fakes.

They are not coin collectors, they are into counterfeiting. So what is so so to them, they figure that no one else will catch on to. We spot it though. The rubes don't. They don't work hard enough to see the difference. Just think they will make a quick buck.
