sigistenz Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Hi, I have never seen this type of crown over the monogram and everything seems too flat, especially so the shield with the text, which normally is bold (and therefore more or less worn). Seller did not reply on my request to show the edge. But the coin is already at nearly $300 and still more than 2 hrs to go. I think the coin is an obvious copy - what do you think?

Scottishmoney Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 These coins are usually a bit rounder near the edge of the coin, usually have imperfections in the flan etc. This coin makes me think you think right about this. I would avoid this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kisenish Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Yup! That one is a 100% fake - just "looked alike" original 10 kop. piece. I would disagree with Basilio - this fake doesn't look like a genuine piece. Sigi, forget about it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
