Gothic crown

[Coin#addict 24]

Hi

Can any of you guys tell me if this Queen Victoria gothic crown is genuine please?   Weighs 28 grams. Thank you.

Weight seems okay and from my phone at least nothing is jumping out as suspicious, but there are a lot of good fakes. Maybe do a search on the forums for previous discussions of fakes and see if there is anything to look out for.

Funnily, in my opinion, the obverse looks good, but not so sure about the reverse, that looks too good.

Looking on a bigger screen the plait looks quite flat but the rest of the coin isn't overly worn - do you have a bigger picture of the obverse?

It was up for sale a couple of weeks ago Mr T  on a forum, was trying to find out if it was genuine before I took the plunge. Thanks anyway bud 👍

No worries. I think a few years ago now eBay started enforcing that all Gothic crowns needed to be sold in slabs (maybe only eBay USA).
