Oh, they are definitely real, where real refers to reality. They are just not authentic.   |

They are just not authentic Man, there is always one in every crowd... So, is this forum "real" or is it just a bunch of electrons on a metal disk, and random streams of electrons skipping across a copper wire creating a random design on a collection of liquid crystals on my desk? |

Are we back to the "real vs authentic" arguement?

John Flanagan was born in 1865. he must have been quite the prodigy to design those dollars!

LOL...I picked up a couple of these " Trade dollars" at the flea market (knowing full well that they were fake...I just wanted to have a couple examples of them...plus they were cheap)...also picked up a " Morgan dollar" from the same guy. They don't even come close to the correct weight (these fakes weight like 17.5grams where real ones should be 26+grams or something like that). Oh, and like everyone else has been saying, the design is totally off...both obverse and reverse. Another funny note...one of the " Trade dollars" I picked up was from the 1700s, with the same design as those from the 1800s! lol... |

When I first saw the question: Quote:What are the chances these Trade dollars are real? I have to admit I thought of the meeting of the long-lost Chance brothers: None meet Slim; Slim, None. |
