See if I'm right about this being counterfeit

Take a look at these pics and tell me if you think this is a counterfeit coin. If you look at the staff of the trident, where it meets the hands, you can see it's all out of shape and looks strange compared to a real coin. This isn't my coin and I didn't take the pics.

    It doesn't look real to me.

    Typical "soapy" surface of a polished casting.

    Allow me to join the chorus. It's counterfeit.

    I had contacted the seller about this coin and advised them it was counterfeit. I never received a response from them. The item sold anyway. Feel sorry for the buyer. Just glad it wasn't a high price.

    That seems to be the norm anymore. You contact a seller with questions or concerns and never hear anything back.
