Sorry you must have not uploaded them correctly. Images are tiny. 

Yes, I did read about the "vampire hubs" while researching. Confirmed my suspicions. Not to mention it came with a 1804 one as well haha. No one is THAT lucky.

This isn't because we like to be jerks, or we are trying to keep the information to ourselves. We simply don't want to give counterfeiters any assistance, if at all possible. It has long been suspected that they follow  threads like this one.

Welcome to the forum.

Yes of course I kind of figured out it was for that. I'll go to an ngc partner to my city as I mentioned to see if he can help me identify me a bit easier.

It is not customary for us to give specifics about counterfeit/replica identification. However, if you were to look up an image of a known authentic one, and started to compare its layout to this one, I think you'd find that illuminating. Your instincts were correct, so well done there. We do see a couple of fakes a week.

This issue is in a very select frequent faker category (along with 1776 Continental Dollars, 1804 silver dollars, 1943 copper pennies, etc.), if you will, so I for one always start by assuming it counterfeit, with the burden of proof on showing authenticity. I have yet to see anyone post an owned real one.

Thank you very much. I'll visit an ngc certified partner in my city soon and I can take it with me. He can show me the ropes a bit so I don't get fakes again, right?

Fake or replica. I see many discrepancies between this one and a known authentic one.

Thank you both! Would you care to elaborate a bit on the discrepancies, so I can maybe tell myself easier next time? 

Hi, I'm new here, I've started collecting some coins recently and I came across this one, peaked my interest and got it in a trade.
Size and weight matches known specimens and it's non magnetic. Does appear silver.
I'm still leaning towards fake myself.
What do you think?
