pfriddle Valued Member United States 151 Posts	Posted 03/18/2011 9:28 pm I picked up an 1918/7 Buffalo nickel and found out some time later that counterfeits are common. I would've been more hesistant to pick up a raw one if I knew that ahead of time. I've had this one for a little while so it's probably too late to do anything about it if it's a fake. I have no real reason to think it's a fake but I figure it's better to ask the experts and clear up any doubt. fingers crossed. Report this Post to the Staff

As long as you can find the seller, you're OK. Title to a counterfeit cannot pass. IOW, since you can't legally own it, you can't legally sell it. Report this Post to the Staff

Ca Dreamin Valued Member United States 149 Posts	Posted 03/21/2011 12:35 pm IMO-its the real deal-I've never heard of this one being counterfeited-there are a number of diagnostics for the overdate (ck PCGS book on grading and counterfeit detecting), and this one meets all 3 of them-grade Good.
