1$ "Walking Liberty" 1903 instead of 1986 and "Statue Libetry" 1906 instead of 1986. Is it simple forgery or somthing else?

If you look at the date carefully, it's reengraved. Now they are both worth their face values.

Those aren't even worth their face value, they are some of the recent crop of chinese counterfeits. On the other hand a dollar apiece might actually be a reasonable price for a chinese counterfeit.

yes those are popping up more and more each day, seems the chinese counterfeiters don't know what date the certain commems came out and just slap any date on it and in their mind they think "those stupid Americans will buy it, they will buy anything"

You have to look at it this way. For every person we educate about Chinese fakes, that's one less buyer out there.

Why wouldn't they buy them? Millions of Americans go to Wal-mart (The outlet for China) and buy cheap, worthless stuff every day.
