Adam_E - Are you stating you can see the differences or are you asking a question here? All you have to do is look at the images and compare the details. They are nearly ALL different. I'll get you started:
1. The leaf detail and wheat grain detail in the bundle above the coronet are WAY different. The fake has very little detail, while the real thing looks much nicer.
2. The eye is a different size and shape.
3. The date is a different size.
4. The stars on the fake are large and bold, while the same details on the real coin are thinner and crisper.
5. The words across the top of the fake are misaligned and fat. The same letters on the real coin are properly aligned and are thinner.
6. The surface of the fake looks grainy and lack-luster. The surface of the real coin is proof-like with a hint of cameo.
With a good eye for detail you can spot a large number of differences I did not mention here.
