USA Quarter 25 Cents 1928 Standing Liberty

Hi experts,

I'd love to purchase this coin, but I'm afraid it is fake.

What's your opinions?

Thanks a lot to all.

I wouldn't touch that, I don't know if it's a fake or not, but it's got a really peculiar wear pattern. You're better to save up and buy a decent coin.

Thanks a lot, had the same thoughts.

It has small cavities (pores) around the eagle - a tell tell sign of a cast coin. I am sure it's a fake.

This is a coin I would buy in person. I think that date is not so key. But this is the rare design that is still beautiful even in lower grades. Do you ever go to the international show in Berlin? Maybe you could get one there.

I'm no expert on detecting counterfeits, but I think the lettering looks suspicious as well, for example the F in OF on the reverse. Compare against the images at https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces3573.html

As mentioned the wear pattern is odd - the rims on the obverse are almost worn away but the details on the "jury box" are still crisp.

Hello experts,

I really do not want to take the risk to purchase the above coin. Thus, I will go with this one, which looks much more authentic to me.

Do you also think this one is real? Should be ...

Thanks for your support.
