    100% fake - it has a 78 straight arrow feather.

    Bad fake typical of the crap coming out of China these days.

    I'd prefer these over the good ones. Good ones making things awful difficult for collectors.

    That's why you should buy expensive key date coins in top tier grading service slabs.

    It has the reverse of 1878, so that reverse was not used in 1889. So I would call it not genuine...

    Just think of the effort that went into polishing it!

    If I owned that coin, I'd use it as a golf ball marker on the greens.
