Are these coins counterfeit or real? Large Braided Hair Cents and Liberty V Nickels?

#1 Unread post by WalhallCoins »

Hi,

So im offered to buy a lot of US coins some in exceptional good quality, but i got suspicious by the extremely low prices the person have, and the coins in my eyes didn't look quite right. Maybe i'm to paranoid. I would really appreciate a second opinion before i buy these if the are real of counterfeit? Il post a few examples now, first for example the "STARS" on the two, "Liberty Head "V" Nickels" don't look right to me, and also posted two large braided hair cents, same thing there... for me the stars look weird and flat look :doh: Any opinion from you guys if they are legit or counterfeit would be really appreciated :) The prices ive been offered to buy these coins and more are ridiculous low and i thought it was to good to be true. They also want to sell UNC Indian head cents, but il post this first and would LOVE a second opinion from someone more knowledgeable then me. Thank you!

Ive added one 1909 Indian Head Cent that's ive been offered from the same person to buy, but the letters and year look way off in different sizes. Thoughts? Real or Fake?
