Dapperd Valued Member Canada 88 Posts	Posted 10/09/2022 06:58 am Was inspired to share my story from the "1796 Real Or Fake I Can't Tell " post My objective is to help new collectors from getting burned. Almost a cliche now a days but still holds true....buy the book before you buy the coin... This "gem" was in a Chinatown Toronto shop. They wanted the healthy sum of $5.00 for this "silver antique". I refused to pay, but am not ashamed to say I stole it as I knew it was fake & these people were helping fund counterfeiters.... The real coin is worth a FORTUNE. The diameter was right, the weight was very close, but alas it was magnetic and obviously a crappy cast. But still, new comers to this hobby might get taken. The China fakes are getting better & better all the time....Beware friends..... cheers Edited by Dapperd 10/09/2022 11:23 am Report this Post to the Staff

Since the Carson City Mint closed down for good in 1893, there is no real 1895-CC Morgan, so no, the real coin does not exist and is not worth a FORTUNE. IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
