I don't think I have come across multiple die cracks that is as crazy as this one crazy.gif

Both dies appear to be madly damaged

Yes it's perfectly genuine. It's just a bit whitewashed due to the flash. laugh.gif Not my photo though, I have poor camera skills at the moment doh.gif

I am f...ing suspicious! If I had this coin, I'd say it's a fake made by casting! There are some marks especially in obverse (eagle side). But coin is yours and if you're sure you must be know where it comes from! Sorry for question! hi.gif

I do not have the slightest doubt either. Why should a forger pick a multi diecracked coin for his casting mould? After all this is a very common coin, easily found in nicer condition. Sigi
