1934 Walking Liberty. Misaligned reverse?

#1 Unread post by Matthew98 »

I was looking through my coins and I found a 1934 50c piece with a misaligned reverse and wanted a second opinion on if it is real or not.
I'm no coin expert and have no idea how to tell it it's real or no so some help would be much appreciated.
I have attached images and gifs of the coin below.

You're coin is not authentic and is actually a counterfeit coin.

I agree - fake - compare side by side with a real one to see how terrible this one's design is.
