Hi, I've been going through my Crowns trying to check authenticity. The 1937 ones seem fine. However I do have a 1938 which I'm suspicious of because of the weight only being 26.6g. Passes a magnet test and is the right diameter so I thought I post a couple of pictures for opinions. Real or fake ?

I'm fairly sure its a fake,got the off colour and misformed eyes on the King.
Best to take it to a dealer/coin fair and pretend you wish to sell,they will quickly tell you.

ebay is full full of fake Crowns,underweight is the first red flag.
