Bing Pillar of the Community United States 4253 Posts	Posted 07/18/2011 1:15 pm OK, I'm thinking about purchasing this coin. I have looked at the resources I know and cannot find it listed as a forgery. Anyone care to take a stab at it and letting me know your thoughts about its origins? Report this Post to the Staff

Bing Pillar of the Community United States 4253 Posts	Posted 07/18/2011 6:16 pm Thanks echizento. I'm still trying to get my hands around what to look for in fake coins. I have no idea what a cast seam looks like so I'm shooting in the dark. Anyway, thanks for looking. I'll let you know if I decide to buy this coin. I'm leaning that way. Report this Post to the Staff
Bing Pillar of the Community United States 4253 Posts	Posted 07/19/2011 10:37 am Well, I bought the coin and will receive it in a week or so, Once in hand I will be better able to ascertain if its a replica or the real thing. Thanks again echizento for your input. Report this Post to the Staff
bobbyhelmet Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2838 Posts	Posted 07/19/2011 9:24 pm Looks OK to me - certainly nothing shouting at me. A Very attractive coin. When buying, always trust the seller more than the coin. Are they respected, have they been around a long time, have they been recommended etc. Report this Post to the Staff
Bing Pillar of the Community United States 4253 Posts	Posted 07/19/2011 10:29 pm You absolutely right. The seller makes or breaks a deal. This particular seller I have purchased from in the past, plus the seller offers full refund if not satisfied. But still, I have purchased coins from dealers I have known and they have turned out to be fake. To be fair, the dealer was fooled as well. Report this Post to the Staff
