I'm not 100% sure about the last 2 but all the ones before that are absolutely counterfeits... 100%. Sorry for the bad news. and it is possible that they are silver or silver plated as some chineese cointerfeits were made out of silver, but if they are silver they will hold no numismatic value over silver as there not real coins.

You can tell these are fake mainly because of the extremely crude details of the design, the stars and lettering, uneven wear and impossible denominations... The 7th and 8th picture down is a counterfeit American silver eagle, as well as the crude details yours is dated 1906... These were not first made until 1986... So this is an impossible date and like the first 3 coins (first 6 pics) is 100% fake.

The second to last coin isn't American, it kinda resembles a British britianna but the reverse is wrong with that writing on it.. if I had to guess I'd also most likely counterfeit but I'm not positive on that.. And the last American coin I've never seen so I'm unsure about that one, the lettering and design look ok, but if you got them all at the same place if say its safe to bet it's fake as well. If you don't mind me asking where did you get these? And all from the same person or store?

The first coin is "suposto" be a Morgan dollar, here's a pic of a real 1879 Morgan, look at the difference in the detail of both the design, stars and the lettering compared to your coin .. See how sharp and even the words, stars and details are?

I am sorry to jump in and confirm all your coins are fake. They are common Chinese made counterfeits that are being found at every swap meet and flea market in America.
The designs are all wrong, the dates are impossible on some and I really doubt they contain any silver at all. If you have further doubts, take them to a coin store in your area and they will also tell you they are fakes.

I am also quite sorry and offer my sincere condolences. Each and every one of these coins you have is counterfeit.

NathanASE nailed most of the problems rather well. To add to what he said, the British coin is a poor copy of a British Trade dollar of which counterfeits are prolific. The last one is part of a fake commemorative set "honoring" different presidents (I've seen the whole set). They are all made to base metal or silver-plated copper or brass.

Each of them (as a counterfeit) is worth anywhere between $2-$5. For some of the more interesting ones (like the 1906 "Silver Eagle") you *might* get a little more for the novelty.

Yeah if you already bought them you need to get a refund.
They're definitely counterfeit.
If you've spent a lot of time looking at and handling these types of coins like the people on this forum have you could just glance at these and notice they don't look right.

I like the look on the "morgan", it is a very unusual wear pattern that they made. Please go back to that shop and get a full refund.

I love that both the ASE and Morgan have that hand tooled look to the lettering. Almost works on the early coins, but looks way off on the moderns.

I am not professional for American coins. Though, if you ask me for Balcan/Serbian coins, you can be sure that I know all about them! :)

Also, who else noticed the "LIBFRTY"? I always knew that one day, someone was going to slip up and think that the partially obscured "E" on a Walking Liberty or Mercury was an "F", and then I would have a bit of a giggle.

But let's be fair: before we make fun of whoever made it for their poor grasp of the alphabet, how much trouble have we had trying to attribute Arabic coins?
