trdhrdr007 Pillar of the Community United States 2335 Posts	Posted 05/08/2011 11:35 am Here's the first of two 1909-S LWCs. Well, this is embarassing. In my haste to get these LWCs posted not only did I put up some exceptionally bad pictures....I also forgot this one was a VDB. Anyway, here's some decent pics of this coin.

What is it that makes this coin look suspect? I would probably be fooled. The fakes on these that I have seen have pitted letters when they are magnified to a high degree. The magnification would need be much greater than this posted picture shows. So what do I look for in these pics that should raise a caution flag in my mind? Thanks for any help/education. How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?

acloco Pillar of the Community United States 3540 Posts	Posted 05/08/2011 7:30 pm Could not crop the photo to look at the VDB closer - details go to mush because of the photo. Here is some info on authenticating the S VDB's. Not all of the info is on this website, but a good start. http://www.bakercoins.net/learn/art...09s.vdb.html Report this Post to the Staff
