A scale and diameter readings are useless with Sheffields. They measure and weigh the same as regals.

Yes John I agree. That is why I wanted as definitive answer as possible about the 1806 nonSheffield 8R
as pictured above.
As I am working on a Patent Pending counterfeit device
called True Field Detective T.F.D. I am trying to calibrate
it for CC8Rs. No problem at all with Chinese white copper, super alloy, or silver plate. Ahh but the beautiful Sheffield
is another story all together

Thank You colonialjohn



Two cc8Rs with chop marks Thank You for one well worth it

It is good to know which counterfeits can be determined at home quickly and those that truly need extraordinary means to authenticate.

After February 20 not sure how I am going to list these CC8R for study or purchase to the public? Just genuine regals it seems from the ban. Perhaps there will be some allowance if properly documented in the listing.
Rest in Peace

Take a look. Have an interesting high copper specimen at the usual channel. Soon Stacks/Bowers may start listing CC8R's with GNL#s based on our new book for 2013/2014. Sending them the data in about a month. The Mike Ringo Collection of CC8R's may be selling later this year at the Whitman/C4 Baltimore Convention. Not sure either September or November 2012.
