    Concrete is a bad finish for coins. Definite counterfeit and poorly done at that.

    What was your friends take on the coin? How did your friend acquire the coin? What’s the rest of the story?

    I didn't get past the reverse pic and was like, nope.

    Those fakes have that look that once you see it a few times, you kinda know you better pause.

    I hope they didn't spend alot on it.

    Definitely fake... Too bad, hope your friend did not lose a lot of cash. Likely turn him/her off of collecting coins for good. Cheers, RickO
