After this second embarrassment on this chat board.. I’m officially done with him 

buying or selling!

from my excitement seeing this coin I forget about this simplest thing to to verify with a magnet.. when I called him back and told him it’s fake and it’ll stick to a magnet, he admit, it fake and he was just showing me not trying to sell it 

sorry again for wasting y’all time 

That insufficiently_thoughtful_person admit it’s fake…

just amazed how some of you figured it’s fake that quick over a picture 🙌🏼🙌🏼

I don’t even have 25k to drop on a coin not that rich it was just nice to touch if it’s real..

I was selling this time not buying 

thanks for the reply 

Guys same dealer who sold me the fake 10 cent Canadian gold coin 

has the Lincoln 1943 copper cent 

he’s asking $25k it’s in really rough shape 

is that a fear market value?

Total paid today is $1450 plus credit of $350 

so those 4 coins cost me $1800 Canadian 

Hi guys! He did and I end up buying 4 other coin 🤦‍♂️ 
total value $1800 Canadian minus $350
 $1450

Again I’m not an expert in anyway! I just started to collect 3 years ago, Manley in gold coins… when a coin dealer grantee it’s gold asking $350 and he grabbed it from a large safe with punch other British gold coins! It seemed legit! Again I didn’t lose anything what if it was actual gold and it’s 1/1? 

After reading all this comments, and everyone granting it’s plated, I tested it again with the acid but I wasn’t gentle this time I scratch it hard and it did come off! So yeah it’s paper thin plated 

Thank you everyone who take there precious time to educate me on this fake coin! Y’all are fine and experts in this.

it’s confirmed plated.. called the dealer and he apologized and promised to refund my money on the weekend when the market opens or exchange! At this point I don’t trust him! 

Lesson learned, if it’s good to be true in most cases it is. 

Also if it’s that rare why would it be circulated so many red flags! Can’t wait till tomorrow to verify with a jeweller! 
 

so if it’s actually solid gold I should hold to it and not return it?

Thank you for the feed back! 
I doubt it’s worth 10 cents only

Im not that stupid he tested it 18 karat on the machine 

And I had to test it on the rock at home and it’s positive gold 

so I have at lease 2 grams plus in gold 

Hello everyone, bought this coin today from a dealer at local flea market here in Toronto, canada 

paid $350 tested 18k gold on everything 

tried to find an example on the internet but came negative. couldn’t find anything 

any idea if I’ve over paid or it’s some kinda of counterfeit 

Hello everyone I’ve found those 2 coins and I’ve done some research and there isn’t any silver cents minted in those years 

are they 1 cent error struck on 10 cents????

and what value they could held if they’re actually errors

You definitely have a handle on the cropping. Normally I'd say now just take them from straight on, not tilted, and you'd have it.

What I see is enough scratches to suggest some form of abrasive cleaning, and an unnaturally polished-looking surface, which would keep it from getting a full grade. I almost wonder if it was slightly worn, then replated with straight gold, or maybe something else. I do not think it's uncirculated. It would be good to have the weight in grams (one decimal place at least).

It’s 8 grams 

I’ll just keep it as is with my other coins and not get it graded so I don’t kick my self If it comes anything less than MS or cleaned 

bought it over a year ago from auction as it’s MS62+

It's better. Could be improved a lot, but better. I'm talking about drawing the crop box so that there is almost nothing but coin, rotating it to be properly oriented, and showing the reverse as well. (I can see why you'd want to get it right on one side before doing the other.) The reason for this is so that we can better look at the fields and the high points, and get a better sense of the authenticity. CC gold pieces are ready targets for counterfeiters due to their premiums.

I think you’d like those I think I’m getting a lot better at this 🙏

Do you know how to crop photos? You probably have sufficient detail there if you were to do that.

Please check new pictures added I should’ve looked at others post before I added the coin 🤦‍♂️

tell us about those scratches in the front of liberty's head,,, looks to be cleaned or whizzed,,,,,,,  suspect.

Not really sure how to use but I tired don’t if this is any better! 

Is that better! I know I suck at taking pictures

thank you for replying back

Photos suck too much to say. Try cropping them so we see more coin and less of the white corrugated backing. If it is uncirculated, it'll have some unappealing fingerprints from holding it that way.

Is that an MS coin???

please advice

While it does have spots, I'm not seeing a lot of dings. It could make 64.

So never trust those third party grading companies 🤦‍♂️

Just wonder what grade that could be?

I kind of wonder. I see the thinking, but the pattern seems a little too consistent for the normal woodgrain look. Most of the woodgrain I see has highlights that stayed lighter, rather than ones that grew much darker. Not saying it definitely isn't, but am saying I would like to see it under a microscope where one could perhaps assess whether the dark stripes are some form of crudulation from contact with something (evidently nothing abrasive, rule that out), or whether they are baked into the metal.
