gxseries Posted October 2, 2016 Report Share Posted October 2, 2016 Something looks wrong about this. It looks like a recent replica. Other experts may disagree on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gxseries Posted October 3, 2016 Report Share Posted October 3, 2016 There was a huge batch of counterfeits that appeared a few years ago and this seem to resemble it. It has similar color and texture which is difficult to explain. Best way to describe the color is that this is more rose red instead of blood red copper color. This particular year and mintmark is actually quite scarce and hence replicas were made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
