Help with morgans...to good to be true?

Sorry, but I disagree with the Poor Man's Doubled Die assessment! As best that I can tell from the pic, the coin exhibits thickness on the 5's in the Date and does not exhibit any Die Deterioration Doubling on the 5's in the Date which is the cause of the Poor Man's Doubled Die.

I was a coin dealer for 20 years... The top 3 are AU/sliders that are real... The middle 2 are real but have been cleaned... The bottom one is the only one in question... Just weigh it. If you don't buy them, I will ..

Looks like a great find!!!

I thought that one was to good to be true with some crazy proof like details.

I'm guessing all are fake if that one is.

If I may ask what makes you think it's a fake?

Just because it has proof like details does not necessarily make it a probable fake. Many authentic BU Morgans are described with the designation "mirror PL (proof like).
