thq Pillar of the Community United States 3343 Posts	Posted 09/27/2017 07:17 am I visited a dealer who had a pile of fake silver dollars. Besides the fake look, they felt insubstantial in hand. I didn't need a scale for coins that are 5-10 grams light. "Two minutes ago I would have sold my chances for a tired dime." Fred Astaire Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 09/27/2017 11:04 am Quote: That is a bad cast example. More likely die struck, though the dies might be cast, It has the look of the type of fakes they started putting out 10 to 15 years ago. They haven't really made much in the way of cast fakes in the past 30 years. Report this Post to the Staff
oih82w8 Pillar of the Community United States 7840 Posts	Posted 09/27/2017 11:36 am I just noticed in the OP, that there is NO ribbon scroll across the shield with LIBERTY, and very long, and crooked, vertical shield lines intersecting the horizontal lines to boot. Report this Post to the Staff
