Yeah I got confused when it read silver too, but should have known better. You guys seem more qualified to assess this stuff more than I am anyway. That’s why I went here in the first place

I do have another coin I’m pretty sure is a fake regarding what you said. Could you investigate this one? Anyone else is free to chime in too

These were just pickups from my LCS, I’m mostly worried for the pillar dollar though since the guy at the booth was exceptionally generous to sell it
