livingwater Pillar of the Community United States 2245 Posts	Posted 04/10/2023 2:32 pm Thanks to those who pointed out the proof it's not a genuine Silver Eagle. At that low $2.88 price, way below spot melt, most should know it's not real. Edited by livingwater 04/10/2023 2:36 pm Report this Post to the Staff

hfjacinto Pillar of the Community United States 7292 Posts	Posted 04/10/2023 8:14 pm Quote: I find myself thinking that this forum would be a wonderful place for foreign counterfeiters to have their counterfeit products reviewed to see how they're progressing. IN NO WAY should this forum be referenced by counterfeiters. Most counterfeit coins are extremely hard to detect, this one wasn't. I don't want any counterfeiter to learn what we look for. There are other tells on the coin posted, I just posted a few obvious ones. I'll keep the others to myself. But for most coins the counterfeiter always misses something. YOU have to be on the lookout for what that something. My Slabbed Dansco 7070 with Gold Page My Slabbed IHC Set My Slabbed 20th Century Type Set Report this Post to the Staff
SaturnD51 Valued Member United States 425 Posts	Posted 04/10/2023 8:53 pm I bought 23 of the 2015 eagles and and about 8 of the 2014. That is defiantly not a us mint 2015 silver eagle. Bought mine in 2016. Very crudely made. Not even close to an original. Fake. Edited by SaturnD51 04/10/2023 8:57 pm Report this Post to the Staff
MrPink2018 Pillar of the Community United States 2477 Posts	Posted 04/10/2023 11:42 pm salata, my eyes see numerous ills with that stinker of a coin. for the past few days I've been returning my ASEs to their respective dansco albums. I've looked at dozens and dozens of perfect & nearly perfect silver eagles, and then tonight I see that coin you posted and it just screams 'fake'. thanks for sharing that!

hfjacinto Pillar of the Community United States 7292 Posts	Posted 04/11/2023 08:16 am Quote: where does the feather cover the shield? Look at the back of the heraldic eagle on the right side of the shield there is a single feather that cover a little of the top part of the shield. It's easy to miss but it's there.
