edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 08/02/2016 12:38 pm Was thinking about bidding on it if the price is right. Does it look real? I did a bunch of comparisons to sold Heritage auctions, and it seems to match.

amida17 Pillar of the Community United States 4897 Posts	Posted 08/02/2016 4:06 pm Yeah, good buy for someone...you? Vlack 18-87C looks right. Prolific reverse also used on 19-87C, 20-87C,21-87C, 23-87C and the Vermont RR-13 Mule. Report this Post to the Staff

jerseyben Pillar of the Community United States 1211 Posts	Posted 08/04/2016 07:40 am Nice coin. You should be less concerned with whether or not these pieces are "real" and more concerned with them being mis-attributed as Machin's Mills pieces. Often they are just common British halfpennies (regal and non-regal). Very similar appearance, big difference in price and desirability. Report this Post to the Staff
