Dwelch New Member United States 22 Posts	Posted 05/31/2013 03:35 am Think first one and second coin I have an idea as to what they are but this last one is hard to make out really.....think first is Spanish 8 reales coin. Second coin is some really ultra rare German coin but the last one I have no clue about it at all and I'm wondering if since its in such bad conditions does it still hold any value at all?

plonker Valued Member United States 462 Posts	Posted 06/01/2013 10:44 pm Second ones reverse seems very similar to 1621 SILESIA-LIEGNITZ-BRIEG Thaler. If you search that in google images,you will get an image from NGC.may I ask where you get that from ? Report this Post to the Staff
marz Valued Member United Kingdom 116 Posts	Posted 06/03/2013 10:25 pm it is hard to tell from the photos, but the first two look dubious (replica/copies), but the third looks ok... some larger photos would help Edited by marz 06/03/2013 10:26 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Dwelch New Member United States 22 Posts	Posted 06/03/2013 10:43 pm I got almost all of my coins from the inside of a wall in my house!! Was doing remodeling and there they were I'm a old box that looked kinda like a box that checks come in!! I thought first two were fakes as well but magnet does not pick up and also the weights were right on well actually not right on I think the second coin was like .6 or .5 or something like that less than what weight was supposed to be!! But how can I tell if they are fake for sure and what should I look for in the future!!? Report this Post to the Staff

Dwelch New Member United States 22 Posts	Posted 06/04/2013 01:46 am Well that stinking sucks!! But what makes ya think it is fake cause I have looked at another one online and it looked identical!! The shade of coin seemed a little different but coin looks same....the other one I saw looked brighter like a little more silver color!! I am taking all my coins to a grader in rossville ga tomorrow and hopefully I will have some real ones....and what do I look for when buying to make sure my coin is real? This is very important to me cause I wanna start a really solid collection to pass to my kids!! I don't want them going to sell them and they say they were fakes!! Report this Post to the Staff
