Presumably I have a 33% chance of getting it right. I’ll go with the top one.

I have to go with the consensus
Top one

Lower left. Details appear lower relief, and, I think I see a couple of depressions in the field.

The rims look weird on all 3Yup all 3 look fake, at least from the picture. Many saying the lower left, it looks the closest to authentic of the 3 to me. RGDS!

My eyes are failing and I can't judge real versus fake coins
I will guess bottom left since bottom right and top seem to have more copper spots?

Well I change my vote to the top one being fake, either that is fake or it has been damaged.

Where did her thumb goPlus the top coin appears to have a raised dot by the L, and a couple of voids in the planchet by her head and shoulder.

The top one is fake. Look at lady liberty's hair form and detail below LIB.

Ok, I kind of had a trick question. All are counterfeit. I bought three omegas from a dealer, and after examining them closely, only two are omegas. One I assume is an unknown counterfeit. Correct weight on all three. The top is the odd man out. The details are not as crisp, and there is no omega sign. It does have some toning to it, so I’d say it’s fairly old.

Both bottoms Omegas?
It's all about what the people want...

sheesh. took me a couple minutes to brush myself up on the variations of the roman numeral $20 saint. been a while. UHR, HR, HR wire
i can't even think about properly authenticating (even for fun/practice from an image like this, which is pretty good)
ok i only read half the thread pre-post. now i see it was moot but my loose guess was the top but just that.
nice newps!

The top one's hand detail (holding the staff) is missing too. I missed that the first go-around.
