SteveCaruso Pillar of the Community United States 1796 Posts	Posted 04/23/2012 9:41 pm http://fakes.numismetrica.com/2012/...1817cc-0001/ So the facts stand as follows: 1) The Carson City Mint wasn't even around in 1817. 2) There were no Trade dollars minted in 1817. 3) There were no dollars AT ALL minted in 1817. And even if you assume that the counterfeiter meant "1871" (yar har har) it'd still be a number of years before Trade dollars even began. Naive counterfeiters. Bless them. :-) Report this Post to the Staff

Broken-Coin Pillar of the Community United States 1812 Posts	Posted 04/23/2012 11:26 pm As I mentioned in previous threads, the CC stands for China Crap... Anyone knowing coins wouldn't have to look at this coin (not) had they been informed it was a American 1817 CC anything... Report this Post to the Staff
