The "junk dollar" (the one with the boat) is a crudely engraved fake; it's got the same mis-aligned sunrays I pointed out in this thread. The second coin has the "mushiness", the overall blurriness and lack of detail that is common to cast counterfeits, or counterfeits made from spark erosion dies. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

Bottom one is a Dollar from the year 3 of the last emperor (=1911), Y#31 in my catalogue. Can't really make any comment on authenticity except that some of the characters on the bottom coin look spurious. Report this Post to the Staff
