  .
  i really do not like the color.
  
  only 2 logical explanations to me, it is REALLY cleaned/polished or not authentic
  
  there may be some diagnostics to be confirmed even from those images

  Doesn't much matter if it's fake or real. At the $2400 asking price you could buy a certified superb gem example.
  Why buy this circulated/cleaned piece which is worth only hundreds of dollars at best? It's rare to find these scuffed up like this with
  so many decent uncs out there to choose from. PASS.

  Looks fake and not a very good one.

  I asked for better pics and got the "all my cameras don't capture it, even with all the
  buttons pushed (flower and all). I need to buy a new camera with the proceeds from
  this sale".
  
  
  Sure, I buy that!

  Yeah stay far away from that coin. Check and see what NFC Coins has in inventory, but stay away from that 83
