1818 George III halfcrown

[Coin#addict]

Can any of you guys advise me if this coin is real or fake please? Everything seems ok with it regarding weight and dimensions, but it has what looks like white stuff on it on the bottom of reverse.

Thank you.

Looks kosher, and I doubt you'd see those contact marks on a wrong'un.

Is the alignment right? It should be medal alignment, not coin alignment. There have been some very good forgeries of the 1818 and the only thing they got wrong was the alignment.

There is a lot of 1818 fakes .They are good ,but they all have a couple of things in common .A broken garter belt at PENSE and a dink on the forehead . Yours have neither , so looks alright .
