This is not my coin but thought you guys would like to see it. I’ve asked for better pictures - this was found in CT.

    So whatever is the overlapping strike is not the same coin. I don't know what else to make of this. Peace Roy

    Strange....and just my impression from the pictures...likely a fake....Would need authentication. Cheers, RickO

    Very interesting for sure, but professional authentication would be a must.

    If real, that would be an amazing piece!

    Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.

    I see no reason to doubt it, but it needs professional conservation and authentication. Grading is irrelevant.

    I really hope that proves true. That would be very cool

    Weird. Need to be authenticated.

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.
