moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 07/04/2015 9:39 pm She is an ugly, ugly girl and I would not date her. BUT I think she is an HONEST girl and still deserves respect without accusations that's she's some counterfeit hussy. Report this Post to the Staff

CoinHuntingDrew Pillar of the Community United States 4932 Posts	Posted 07/04/2015 11:48 pm I think what you have is a period contemporary counterfeit that ended up circulating. I do believe it's still silver, but the details just do not line up. Report this Post to the Staff

Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 07/05/2015 08:56 am I don't like tattoos on my blowup dolls Exo BUT on the real deal Does anyone know who the leading authority on contemporary counterfit morgans is? I pinged Steve so I'm sure he'll chime in but is there a renowned contemporary morgan specific specialist? And how are they traded with authority as to their authenticity? Do either of the big 3 slab contemporary counterfits? Edited by Cascade 07/05/2015 08:57 am Report this Post to the Staff

Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 07/05/2015 1:27 pm Ok guys, I've done a cursory search on contemporary counterfits to try and educate myself a bit and info on morgans is sparse at best. Most are about capped bust halves and Seated dimes though but I found this site about contemporary counterfit silver dollars and how to tell them apart and I must say my coin matches the diagnostics on this site very well. Take a look and read abut halfway down for morgans... Whatcha think? From the mushiness to the reeding I THINK I definitely have one! http://meridiancoin.com/contemporar...ollar-guide/ Edited by Cascade 07/05/2015 6:05 pm Report this Post to the Staff
moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 07/05/2015 4:47 pm Well worth a read. Thanks for the link. This Morgon is certainly suited to hot debate, although I still wouldn't date her. Well, maybe with counter stamps... Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 07/05/2015 7:26 pm I'm actually tempted to list some utterly ludicrous thing I'd do if this coin were real, but I'm not sure I'd believe anyone who told me it was. Report this Post to the Staff
Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 07/06/2015 04:05 am The link is a good read, but most everything he is discussing and illustrating are modern fakes not contemporary counterfeits. Report this Post to the Staff
Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 07/06/2015 11:02 pm Ya, I got that when I reread it after I posted it. That title was misleading but that Ellis Island was a dead giveaway. Conder, are we still thinking contemporary silver counterfit? I assume you stand by your fitst post. If this were yours what would your next step be? This thing will fool collectors let alone the general public. Report this Post to the Staff

Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 07/07/2015 7:03 pm Here you go westcoin... read Conder101's first post too Can't wait what to see what you think as I respect your opinion I wonder why this isn't as hot a topic as it should be? And I also wonder where Steve is, maybe he didn't get my email? I'd of thought he'd be all over this Edited by Cascade 07/07/2015 7:05 pm Report this Post to the Staff
