    My First Post,my First Fake?

    Hi All Thanks for the advice,comparison much appreciated. I must admit to my inexperienced eye struggling a little with the differences in the date font. I'm afraid I can't identify the seller as it was a private purchase, he said the collection was his dads and that he had known it all his life,is it not feasible that it could be a 20 year old fake? Also are the genuine crowns pure silver? Thanks again Kind Regards

    Hello Rob,Peter Thanks for confirming my suspicions! Interestingly or not this one weighs in at 27.6 gm. Allegedly from a 20 year old private collection. It would be great if you could shed some light on whats wrong with the figure? Best Regards
