burfle23 Pillar of the Community United States 517 Posts	Posted 12/08/2022 11:11 am Do you need that for the date? Report this Post to the Staff
CarrsCoins Pillar of the Community United States 756 Posts	Posted 12/08/2022 11:17 am its actually the color that give me red flags first. I would steer clear because of that alone. then there is the date. I agree that punch is wrong. it is also missing the diagnostic die crack in the wreath under the second s in states. ive never seen an 1809 without the crack. I suppose they could exist without the crack but ive never seen it and ive been proactively looking for a while now. 100% fake. thanks for posting it!

kanga Pillar of the Community United States 5825 Posts	Posted 12/08/2022 11:27 am I've got the books to ID the variety. But the pics need to be better. And like CoinFrog said, "... remove the coin from the holder". Report this Post to the Staff
CarrsCoins Pillar of the Community United States 756 Posts	Posted 12/08/2022 12:07 pm there is only one variety for 1809. this aint it. the leaf positions are all wrong. here is a nice real one the leaf tips are in the wrong positions on the reverse. check out the location of the tip of the leaf under the F in oF and the second S and T in staTeS.

westcoin Pillar of the Community United States 9792 Posts	Posted 12/08/2022 12:12 pm That date logotype is the obvious spot for me to look at first. But easy to see how these trick the innocent beginners in our hobby, this hurts us all by scaring new collectors out of the hobby entirely. Thanks for the post Jack!
