alexbq2 Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 Doesn't look right: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...em=300395733690 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vfox Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 I'm not really into the patina, looks lacquered and corroded and cleaned. But then again it could be a fake patina on a fake coin. I don't really know but it doesn't stick out as glaringly as some of the other examples you've noted recently. I could go either way on this one.
