I would stay away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gxseries Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 Looks like a modified AM coin to a KM coin although I am not too sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BKB Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 Looks like a modified AM coin to a KM coin although I am not too sure. It looks like the whole thing is reingraved/altered. The date and mintmark. I bought coins from him in the past. I think I returned 4 coppers because they were re-engraved. I also think that he knows exactly what he is selling...

squirrel Posted March 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 i asked the seller for a larger photo. They replied that it would be to much work to provide, but garanteed the authenticity of the coin. Someone is out the price of a nice steak dinner for two.

This seller sells such "modified" coins to fool people quite frequently I tried to write him, but dishonest people have no scruple. As to this coin - both, the date and the mintmark are re-engraved. The simplest way how to see the original KM mintmark on the small Paul's coins - the dot between KM should be in the middle of the letters, the dot in EM is at the bottom.
