Is it means fantasy grade like NGC? I posted this in world coin forum but US forum might get answer faster. Thanks.

    Krause lists this piece as a "modern copy." Not sure why exactly, but it's a legit coin listed in Krause, and any more details will probably require the darkside board to help.

    The word copy in the cert vert means it's a Mint reissue of the original 1910.

    Aren't these usually referred to as restrikes when they are reproduced by the original issuing mint?
