huron New Member Lithuania 4 Posts	Posted 03/08/2011 2:21 pm Greetings to all. I want to buy here this coin. Weight and diameter of a coin which were specified by the seller, coincide with the parameters specified in catalogs. Weight of 25 grams and diameter of 37 millimeters. How you think, it is a forgery, or the original? In advance thanks for the answer. Report this Post to the Staff

If I was buying it I'd have a good look at the sellers returns policy anyway.

brokencompass Valued Member United States 451 Posts	Posted 03/08/2011 6:10 pm Looks OK to me too. I don't see uneven wear or differences in depth of coin. Is it a key/ semi-key date? In most cases, people won't go to great lengths to forge a common coin. Report this Post to the Staff
Jeff 11 Valued Member United Kingdom 497 Posts	Posted 03/08/2011 6:39 pm Does look ok, though always worth being careful, Swiss shooting Thalers are widely copied as you are no doubt aware. Take it the seller is based in Europe/North America? There is a member of this forum who specialises in shooting thalers, I forget the name - hopefully someone else will point them out shortly. www.kingstoncoincompany.co.uk Report this Post to the Staff

My focus has really been shooting medals - http://coins.www.collectors-society....aspx?s=1753 But also have a set of shooting talers - http://coins.www.collectors-society...eSetID=91130 I do believe this Taler posted is genuine.
