    The Wiener medals look flat, but it has been years since I have seen one in hand. Someone posted one either here or in the dark side forum that they bought from CRO a few weeks back, and the depth of that one was spectacular, which is consistent with what I remember as typical. So , is the consensus here that the example on the Bay is fake?

    No, I think the consensus here, if I read it correctly, is that US coin sellers should not ship yellow snow to Chinese buyers for fear we would be inundated in acid rain, next week.
