GabeClark Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 (edited) Is this coin real ? Thank you for the responses, all though they can be really rude...but thanks I did not obtain the coin in a box of cracker jacks like someone said. I've been collecting coins since I was 14! The reason why I ask if it's real it's because we don't have a ngc coin grading professional in my country . Or else I wouldn't of asked.. Please people don't say rude things, I haven't in anyway offended anyone. Edited October 11, 2020 by GabeClark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moxie15 Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Does it have an obverse? GabeClark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenstang Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Always show both sides of the coin when posting. Also take it out of the 2x2 when shooting to avoid glare. This applies to your other post as well. GabeClark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GabeClark Posted October 11, 2020 Author Share Posted October 11, 2020 (edited) Yes I'm not a professional when taking pictures sorry. Once I have one of my friends that knows about photographs I'll post more. Edited October 11, 2020 by GabeClark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GabeClark Posted October 11, 2020 Author Share Posted October 11, 2020 (edited) Yes weight is 1.3 grams Edited October 11, 2020 by GabeClark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenstang Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 (edited) Pictures are still out of focus but from what I can see, I would say it is counterfeit. I have seen this counterfeit before.

Greenstang Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Quote Yes weight is 1.3 grams That helps to verify my previous statement of it being counterfeit, the weight should be 1.7g. GabeClark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex in PA. Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Maybe this may help. Taken from PCGS Coinfacts. Look at your reverse and what's wrong with 'States'. Hope you have better luck with US coins. GabeClark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWB Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Unfortunately, almost every that could be wrong about the coin is wrong -- even the edge reeding. If you go on-line and look at photos of genuine coins, it will save you a lot of angst and maybe money. Stacks-Bowers Auctions, Heritage Auctions, PCGS and NGC all have lots of coin photos you can examine for free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
