Ordered this up from a reputable seller in the US ive bought from before.
Getting very hard to find these decent priced in higher grades. I rarely get the 1$ coins but it was priced right.
Any opinions would be great?

Cool design.

Low AU if it isn't cleaned. Tough to tell from the pics, but the scales look worn a bit.
yea the angle of the pic doesnt help. I wont know until i get it in hand next week.
Look like pics from seller 2007chuan on eBay
Good luck and let us know when you get it in hand.
No wasnt him. I will post some photos next week after it arrives.
Hope all turns out well for you good luck.
Hoard the keys.
Looks fake to me. Maybe is the lighting
Don't buy raw from 2007chuan. He sell fake coin
This would be a good time for all to look at Stacks Chinese auction. If not to buy just to look at and to get familiar on how they should look. Every collector should do this on all auctions this will help you not only to see if they look right but what is sells and what to look for out there when looking at or for coins. This works and helps in all coins and medals well in anything you do, not trying to down you just trying to keep you and others sharp, Happy hunting.
Hoard the keys.
Please explain what looks fake. It wasnt 2007chuan as i stated prior.
Yes i frequently do as well as previously graded coins of the same variety already graded by our host n ngc.
I can't explain it but if you see many coins then you developed some gut feeling about a coin. I guess. Sorry the more I look at it the more I feel like it is a fake coin. I remember couple years ago a Chinese buyer from China asked me to send 10 coins to NGC to grade they are look like this coin. Of course they all came back as fake, then he asked me to send them to ANACS; again it came back as fake all of them. Again it could be the lighting.
I just went to ebay and did a quick search to find couple of them has the same kind of looking, finish. I don't want to spend more time to find more example.

Looks fake to me. Interesting it has clash marks in the center of the reverse.
don't bother sending it to grade, just send it back asking for refund. Can you tell us the weight and the size if you can? Thanks.

Nice follow through.
Cool! Did you get glamour shots done with our host? It would be fun to see them (and I'm to unsavvy about the website to figure it out).
I got the standard ones. They havent posted them yet.
@Stork
Maybe not a beauty shot, but it does give another take on the 'look'. I'm guessing PCGS (and NGC) are reasonably adept and cautious with these.
Yes very. They are like scarce/rare morgan and other usa dollars more fakes then you can imagine.
