Why is it a numbered copy? meaning it's minting is limited? or is that H1718 just a fancy thing?

I doubt it was made out of costly materials, so it probably would only sell for a few dollars at the most and probably less. Some coin collectors will not buy fake or replica coins, and there are some coin collectors that do.

Well, its not really a fake. There is nothing fake about it. It is a genuine copy of a 1892 Barber quarter.
