Are these dollars real or fake?

I know it might be kinda hard to tell from pics. But i think they are fake. Just would like some opions they are going to be at an auction i am going to. I will take my books and scales but more brains are better than one.

    I agree with Stone. Run away!


    I am assuming this is one coin showing obv and rev. It's better than many of the fakes out there.

    For the folks that think you cannot grade a coin from pictures:

    Maybe so.

    But sometimes, even with poor pictures, you can tell a fake.

    the auction takes pictures while coins are in stapled flips sitting on a carpet?

    looks fake to me.
