I compared your coin to Heritage coin. There appears to be some differences which would suggest counterfeit. How did you come into possession of this coin? Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 04/13/2009 3:34 pm It's almost certainly a cast counterfeit - the places on the obverse and reverse where the strike looks weak are classic signs, found on a large number of counterfeits and almost never on actual examples of this coin. Trade dollars are among the most popular of counterfeits, and it's likely that there are more counterfeits available than "real" ones. Report this Post to the Staff

That is certainly a very small price to pay for a valuable education, and you're doing the Coin Community family a service by allowing us to discuss this important topic in public again. Welcome to Coin Community, and thank you for showing such an open and interested willingness to learn. Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 04/15/2009 07:55 am I'll agree its a fake, but I'm not so sure about cast. Cast TD fakes haven't been common for some time now. Report this Post to the Staff

Part of my thinking is the fact that he's in Europe rather than America. However, the more I look at the relatively-clean fields and what looks like rim crumbling on the reverse, the more I believe you're right. Report this Post to the Staff
