Already reported this auction......perhaps I'm wrong but I'm certain this coin is fake.....everything looks wrong combined with bad photography.

Here is the text of my report:


Quote:
The photos are terrible, but look closely at the arrow fletches on the reverse. When the image is pulled into an editing program and darkened for clarity, it's easy to see that this is the 1921-only reverse as characterized by the unique shape of those fletches. In addition, the shape and configuration of the date is obviously wrong - one 8 is larger than the other, and the numerals tilt in inconsistent directions.

Most definitely fake, and regardless of the seller's disclaimers, not legal for sale.

How cool is it to own a legitimate old west Silver dollar!

Over 100 years and they consider it to be collectible.

This is not a Chinese replica, it is not attracted by a magnet


You should be skeptical of anyone who uses the term legitimate.

At least we know this replica wasn't made in China. :)
