austrokiwi Pillar of the Community 2087 Posts	Posted 11/11/2012 10:16 am I am not overly familiar with pillar dollars......Assuming the coin is genuine it looks like an off center Double strike. Given that the the likely technology used was a Spindle(screw) press an off center strike isn't that unusual and the same applies to double striking. Report this Post to the Staff

MathieuMa Pillar of the Community France 1591 Posts	Posted 11/12/2012 12:46 pm The rim on the second picture near D.REX looks strange (dentils stop before the coin's end ...) And in any case, the whole coin looks strange (even for a double struck) Report this Post to the Staff
swamperbob Pillar of the Community United States 5362 Posts	Posted 11/12/2012 5:34 pm The coin is struck at least twice - possibly more than 2 but I am not certain. The strike is eccentric. In my opinion it is a MODERN FORGERY. Flat strike made from transfer dies. Suggest: Magnet test weight SG Report this Post to the Staff
