Looks like a lot of work went into it... Report this Post to the Staff

My aunt has recently passed away and left me a collection of stamps and coins. I really have no idea about them but have been told that this cent is very rare by a friend who has one in his collection." You can be sure that it is a fake. Punt on it.

delaner Pillar of the Community United States 870 Posts	Posted 05/06/2011 1:31 pm Oh, I'm not interested in buying it. I just thought it was a novel curiosity. So post 1950, eh? Never would have guessed! I figured they'd have easily done a decent cast replica by then. Yeah, it is pretty awful if it's that recent. Thanks for sharing the info! Report this Post to the Staff
