A local seller had this coin avail for sale. Images looked pretty legit.
I did a last minute check online and found a link showing examples of where ppl have modded these coins and I was like holy crap!!! Quickly said thx but no thx!

Wondering if I should report them.

I have to admit that it was a pretty good quality fake. And, no, the seller wasn't deceitful at all. He also sold me a nice looking 1877 Indian Head cent and a 1793 Chain large cent for the same price. I keep them as decoys for the bad guys and have no plans on selling them.

So did the guy actually say he thought it was fake?
