I was at a show today in Gillespie IL. One of my dealer friends handed me this coin to find out if it was real. I think since it is recessed into the field it cannot be real BUT.... I asked if I could barrow until next weekend to get an answer. What do you guys/gal think of this one?

Sorry, but that is definitely a garage job/squeeze job.

Definitely a squeeze job. Notice the letters are backwards also.

That is kinda what I thought to. Three penny's, "This one in middle" through a vise... Nice to know and I will return and tell him the bad news...
