Yes, it does look a bit rough, like a casting. He also has a 1700 crown that has the same problem methinks. It could just be the photo but with coins of that price I wouldn't want to take a chance TBH.

I agree, IMO the details on reverse crown details and esp G5's hair on obverse just do not look right. Could be photography but methinks the coin questionable.

I have bought some excellent coins from the seller.

It looks nice (not Unc) but this coin is rare.I'm sure dialogue could sort a deal.Chris,the owner of this site is an expert on this coin.

932 issued plus loads of Chinese I would want to see it in glove.

Coinageofengland is one of the better sellers on Ebay.

Is it confirmed that there are chinese copies now. I have only seen a couple of obvious cast copies so far.

It looks like a scan to me and they can tend to look a bit rougher than photos.
