Hey all,

I've had this coin for awhile now, I was sure that it was real until I started looking around this site! All signs point to it being real but I would like some opinions on it! thanks

Definately not one of the altered '44, so the date looks good.
I put one up here once and someone said "the die characheristics are there it is authenic"
I really wish I asked him what they are, so maybe some one will chime in.
The inside shape of the mintmark is specific but you may need to show the reverse, we'll see.
anyway , looks real to me and she is a sweet coin.

Thanks for all the replies! I don't have a super loop or anything but it does apear to have the die crack at the bottom of the coin like a lot of them do and the shoulder is clear of the VDB. Also it does seem to me that the mint mark is resting down into the coin.

I just wanted to be sure! haha

No VDB on shoulder along with a triangular hole in the mintmark will eliminate the vast majority of fakes. Your coin looks like a nice VG

Looks like a pretty nice coin. There's a ton of fakes out there. If in doubt, have in authenticated by a TPG or expert dealer.
