Were there any fakes made today? The plating looks newer than 1883. I may be wrong about this and can be real.
1/100 of an American dollar is a cent. It is NOT a penny. The word penny is used by several other countries, such as Great Britain, to denote their smallest denomination. In order to be numismatically correct, you must use the term cent to describe the American coin.

It would be illegal to create a fake... V-Nicks are still legal tender. They take genuine pieces with issues (IE cleaning, corrosion, etc.) and plate them.
