Came across this video while perusing TikTok. Odds are it’s fake but wanted to get others thoughts on it. Not my coin or my video.

    It’s a no-go as a genuine example. The person in the video sure held the coin in a careless manner, considering its alleged potential value.😉

    I remember a guy selling fakes on ebay that used that same lined paper (no video of course). Got banned as I recall for selling fakes....maybe the same perp.
