albumcollector Valued Member United States 285 Posts	Posted 08/19/2010 08:40 am I don't know, but I would sure be suspicious of it. The texture of it makes it look like it might be a cast replica? Like I said I am not sure but I wouldn't be bid on it! Report this Post to the Staff
biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 08/19/2010 12:08 pm It looks like a severely corroded ground find that has been scrubbed, I don't think it would be worth more than $10-20 in that wretched condition Report this Post to the Staff
big777bill Valued Member United States 376 Posts	Posted 08/19/2010 12:52 pm Porosity and extremely corroded. Biokemist6 is probably right about it being a dug and cleaned coin. Report this Post to the Staff
delaner Pillar of the Community United States 870 Posts	Posted 08/19/2010 2:13 pm No kiddin, bio..? albumcollector - that was my initial thought, that it was a sand-cast replica. So noted biokemist, I'd have sworn it was a bad replica. Of course, I'm not bidding on it, but I wasn't sure if it was the kind of thing that should be reported. Glad I didn't! =) Thanks for the help! Report this Post to the Staff
biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 08/19/2010 3:11 pm IMO, that damaged hunk of metal is no better than a replica. 1931-S is fairly common for a semi-key and you should be able to find a nice undamaged example for the asking price of the set. With that corroded coin, the set is way overpriced. Report this Post to the Staff
delaner Pillar of the Community United States 870 Posts	Posted 08/19/2010 3:18 pm Yeah, bio - no I'm not buying it. This is one of those coins I'll buy certified, and probably in person. But I'm glad to learn it's not a fake - this is some good ejumikation. =) Report this Post to the Staff
