Look at the eagles beak, compare the date to an authentic example (very narrow improperly shaped numbers on the CFT). And the head details are incorrect are probably the most obvious issues.
The 1's in the date are arabic along with the 9 and 2 being different. I notified the seller, but no response as of yet. It is so obvious for an SLQ collector but a novice maybe not.

Seller has another fake listed. Check the sold listings too.
