    Crooks like this who purposely leave out that these coins are counterfeit should be permanently banned.


    P.S. I do think this is a very good counterfeit that would have tricked me at first glance.
    Edited to Add: Now seeing larger pictures It's an obvious fake.....What a CROOK image

    Yes, I am 100% sure that it is fake. The tell-tale sign for me is the gash on "Liberty" near the "I".

    That's funny, it is rusting.

    ANyway, that's looking scary. Another couple tons pressure on that press and they have a great looking coin.

    Sure looks suspect. And this seller is known for selling counterfeit coins and being rather rude when you e-mail him about it.

    I like his verbage - "Have to part with my collection." Maybe it's because the feds are after him!

    This seller is dishonest and has the stones to indicate "No Returns".

    Some of the lettering may appear weak but that is a feature of the coin, they were minted that way!!!

    His description is indeed accurate. Counterfeits are notorious for weak lettering.

    I have been following one of his coins (11-D $5 Indian PCGS AU55) now I think I should not even bother. Especially since I could swear that this same coin sold last week. Anyone else remember this coin selling? Are their good fake PCGS slabs?

    It is possible that this seller is having trouble coming to terms with the fact it's bogus.
