RK55 Pillar of the Community United States 2036 Posts	Posted 08/13/2019 3:49 pm This was in a older type set folder, looked good at a distance. weight .07 Grams, non silver. Cast copy? I don't know if it is a contemporary or modern fake. First Fake 3 Cent Silver I have ever seen in hand. Report this Post to the Staff

joecoin Pillar of the Community United States 774 Posts	Posted 08/14/2019 07:06 am Question about glued on mint marks. What glue is used? If you put the coin in acetone, will the glue dissolve and the mm fall off? Report this Post to the Staff
sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 17890 Posts	Posted 08/14/2019 07:18 am Super Glue is probably the strongest. It is also probably the most sensitive to be dissolved in acetone. Report this Post to the Staff

CanadaPennies19 Valued Member Canada 115 Posts	Posted 08/15/2019 09:59 am 1858 Canadian Penny. Seller states colour looks more realistic in person. These were being pumped out of China for years without the COPY logo. These are from a common website which I emailed the seller and asked if I ordered one would it come with COPY and seller stated that the word COPY has to be stamped on photographs but wont be on the actual coin. Yikes. EDIT: added "seller states colour looks more realistic in person" from "Looks more realistic in person" - I don't condone nor support sales of counterfeits as I was a victim of fake bullion.

commems Pillar of the Community United States 5046 Posts	Posted 11/23/2020 09:07 am Here's a fake Roanoke-Virginia Dare commemorative half dollar I came across: Here's a link to the original post and discussion of the piece: http://goccf.com/t/384526 Collecting history one coin or medal at a time!

commems Pillar of the Community United States 5046 Posts	Posted 11/23/2020 09:14 am @Chm8Tin2: That's one bad fake! Thanks for sharing! The depiction of Lady Liberty is cartoonish and lacks the detail of the original - same can be said for the eagle on the reverse. Also the design doesn't match the planchet size - genuine coins don't have rims like that! I hope they didn't pay the "artist" too much. Collecting history one coin or medal at a time! (c) commems.
