CanadaPennies19 Valued Member Canada 201 Posts	Posted 06/05/2022 7:45 pm Just watched these go on ebay for $470 CDN I debated bidding but I just don't have the knowledge being a primarily Canadian collector. Do they appear genuine? Item: 374103729339 https://www.ebay.ca/itm/37410372933...s&media=COPY Report this Post to the Staff

jacrispies Pillar of the Community United States 3848 Posts	Posted 06/05/2022 7:59 pm All counterfeit. Most likely brass with a thin silver plating, made in China. The large amount of negative ratings is a red flag for the seller. Suffering from bust half fever. Want to learn how to attribute early half dollars by die variety?

They just don't have the right look to them, and all have the typical Chinese fake finish seen so often on modern counterfeits.

CanadaPennies19 Valued Member Canada 201 Posts	Posted 06/05/2022 8:40 pm I messaged the seller and just shared that they're likely fake and he sent me a screenshot that he cancelled the order and seemed apologetic. So maybe it's an unknown sale, not a targeted scam. Report this Post to the Staff

coindu New Member United States 22 Posts	Posted 06/06/2022 10:31 am What exactly are you guys seeing to spot counterfeits? For example: Is it the lines going all in one direction with the third image and top two coins as if it was scrubbed down to give it authenticity? Any examples or specifics?
