I would not say a fake,but do believe what origionally happened was the Palms had twenty five of the $200 Liberties in their Vault,& sent them back,& paid to have the additional Plateing. It is douptful the Mint would take an order for only twenty five Pieces. Does anyone remember Our Strikers Club offering to send a Members Tournament Strike to have part of it Gold Plated,for an additional charge? Believe it was a Las Vegas Club. Am sure someone will remember that transaction..
