Hi!
I've found this coin on one auction. What do You think about this numismat, is it genuine or forgery? In my opinion it's a fake - the eagles heads are different than at original one (also few more details are different).

Well, the mintmark looks different from the photo shown in Krause. The lines above the date are shorter. The flowers by the "12" seem to be larger. The dot after ZOL is in the wrong place..

I think the strike on the 6 o'clock position to 8 o'clock on the reverse looks a bit weak.

Nice try to copy a valuable coin, the strike is weak on the shields surrounding the center shield. The eagles beaks are shaped wrong. I say fake.
