Just so people know this is NOT REAL
And its a new ebayer and its wording in the listing is more than questionable, so be careful peoples.

I would bid on that coin except they put the decimal point in the wrong place for the starting price.:shock:

I'm just wondering why you think the coin pictured is not real.
QuoteI'm just wondering why you think the coin pictured is not real.
Very good question.
The image of the coin presented appears to be genuine.
(Not able to find image via google)
The lack of a Obverse view is a worry.
Seller's feedback score is a concern.
Offering other rareities is a turnoff.
Who really knows? It may well be a Genuine listing.
I'd still would rather see it in hand before bidding on it.:idea:
Real OD has a “male†roo to say the least, and the 2 over 1 is not right.
I think it's OK.
This is mine.

I am pleased to say I could no more pick a genuine 1922/1 overdate than I could pick the nose of an angry tiger. But if I had to bet my tool shed that someone could pick a real one it would be emu666.
Heres a few too look at

All these have a bump in near the kangaroo’s crutch
Sorry AC I have to say that the one on ebay looks ok to me too, especially when comparing it with the links you've given and the image emu66 provided.
Hi Guys, Neal Effendi and I did an article on the 21/22 overdate refuting some of the absolute twaddle issued by the mint in the 60's about the authenticity and origin of the type. Look at June 2016 vol19 issue 05.
We explain the origin of the die used and also take a poke at some other myths about date numeral punching.
There are pics of genuine unworn and worn coins. That wear factor can vastly change the "look" of the date.
Also a pic of your Asian stock fake that were sold on e-bay in droves at one time.
Come in suckers!
Read the article and be informed.
Cheers, Fred.
