    100% fake. It has the mintmark style of 1876-1878.

    Wouldn't buy it; no TPG and 'cleaned'.

    Read his feedback. Looks like he has been called out on it before. Also says the seller ended the auction because the coin was no longer available.

    I was checking newly listed LSQ .25 yesterday and saw it pop up. I did a side by side mm with a coin facts PC55 and realized right away it was fake.
    Then the listing ended but came back up within an hour with a make offer option.
    It was soon after apparently sold for $1800.
    Too bad. Expensive lesson for someone.

    On the other hand, I’ll buy ANY cleaned and scratched AUTHENTIC AU details 70cc Quarter for $1800. I’m not the only one, I’m sure. :p

    Chinese-made fake.

    Look at the date numerals.

    Master forger must have had his 6 year-old draw those up.

    Honestly, some buyers are so stupid.

    More importantly, how does our calling tag that dog and is our host ready to spot it when the sucker who bought it, submits it
