Wrong style designer's initials, the period following the "D" is tucked to close to the "D".
It also has a deep valley style "N" in the word UNITED.

    I’ve got an even better (worse) one I’ll post tomorrow

    There’s a twist to it, too

    It's yet another bogus coin from a seller with zero feedback and no return policy. What could possibly go wrong?

    I will report it.

    The seller don't live to far from me really, maybe 45 minutes. In fact me and my two older brothers was in that neck of the woods today metal detecting.

    This one looks familiar, like it's been here before.

    Especially the mintmark.

    A great example of why novice collectors should be buying TPG coins.

    I'd like to add to that, and when your buying highly valuable coin its a very good idea to buy from a certified dealer just because a nice looking coin at rest in a nice looking certified slab, sealed in vacuum pouches can still be a wolf in sheep's clothing!
    Case in point!
    Counterfeit coins in counterfeit slabs.

    Good job having those taken down, plenty of job security in that field.

    Would like to see the slab reverses on those Morgans.
