Thank you all for your replies. So I imagine they are worth nothing, right?

the pattern I don't think was made in silver and if it was it probably would have been graded.

Another question: I researched ebay to see the price those conterfeits are sold. I put them at $19.99 each but in less than 30 minutes they're at some crazy prices. Link has been removed, not coin related-echizentoThanks

Sorry Alfonso, but these are some of the worst fakes I've seen- most, except maybe the bust dollars, were probably not made even to deceive collectors, or if they were, whoever made them thought we were just reckless purchasers of anything that looked remotely like a coin. I understand that you're new to the hobby, so please feel  to explore the site and learn more. Don't let these fakes get you down, coin collecting is a wonderful thing despite the occasional counterfeit. Just know what to look out for before you spend any serious money. Anyway, and I think I'm speaking for all of us here, what did you pay for these?

alfonso99, do you mean to tell us that you have no idea how or why those fake coins of yours have bid up so high? You need to do a little soul searching imo. So you don't know who any of those bidders are? Moderator, please consider locking this thread. There's something very wrong going on here. Please investigate.

His auctions are up to almost 50k already! Something fishy going on here and they all even say counterfeit on them as well. Are people really that incompetent at their reading skills that they only have to go by what they see?

Interesting... seller is from Costa Rica. Seller's previous sales have all been philatelic in nature. Sell has 3, yes just 3 if you look, shill bidders on his/her fake coins. I think they're doing this as a stunt or something. In the end they can just have the shill ask to kill the sale and it's like it never happened. Alphonso, I see your from Costa Rica, they're your coins in the auction no? you are phila-madness?
But why?

Are you just bored? Do you realize that w/ just a little info thrown their way, ebay will squash you like a bug? And kill your account? edit: I just reported all your auctions to ebay as fraudulent/shill bidding. I'll bet they're off by lunchtime.

One of the bust dollars doesn't even have the word 'Liberty' on the obverse.
