rip-offs for the most part

and the only point in buying these would be your own personal Black Cabinet.

Well, the seller is calling them "altered," so I suspect he's got a good idea of what he has.

Idk, they're probably worth $23 to someone.
He says they're altered in the title and although misleading, I'm sure most coin collectors will know what that means and one will eventually offer him $20 to put in their counterfeit collection.

Ayup, all of those are fake (even the Morgan; that's not a "natural" rim). Worth about $10-15 at most to a counterfeit collector, perhaps as much as $25 at "retail" as novelties (but that's stretching it).

From what I can see, I have all of these varieties in my collection already. They are ubiquitous. Every cash-for-gold place gets hit by them eventually.

(Some of my own counterfeit collection can be found at The Black Cabinet, linked below, but I don't think I have these guys up on there yet. They're in the "unsorted" binder, still.)
