David Graham Pillar of the Community Australia 1610 Posts	Posted 01/02/2023 01:41 am Hi all, I just spotted this coin online. Having looked at the PCGS site of the same beast am certain it's a fake. https://www.PCGS.com/coinfacts/coin...1-s-10c/4655 Too many details like the sole of the shoe, the shield just seem to lake detail. Thought I'd get your opinion. Ta Report this Post to the Staff

David Graham Pillar of the Community Australia 1610 Posts	Posted 01/02/2023 2:33 pm Thanks for the feedback. One of my concerns is the ball of her foot. In the PCGS link there is a clear gap between the ball and the sandal, in the online coins there is no gap. Is it just wear? If genuine, what would value would you put it at? Thanks Report this Post to the Staff
Oldgrouchyguy Pillar of the Community United States 630 Posts	Posted 01/02/2023 2:36 pm There are three different varieties; be sure that what you are looking at is the same variety as yours. Report this Post to the Staff
westernsky Pillar of the Community United States 7617 Posts	Posted 01/02/2023 5:17 pm I'd say it is in XF condition and world retail around $300/$400 depending on what it looks like in-hand. At least it looks natural and has not been cleaned or messed with —— yet! Others may have different opinions. Report this Post to the Staff
