Hello! I posted this coin it my own thread, but now have a question for everyone. Folks saying it's contemporary counterfeit. I tried too google them, but didn't find anything similar (i think cause is my mediocre english). What value this coins has?   Edited by flying_teapot

Yeah John, that ones like you posted I saw when tried to google it.
1 post counterfeit looks very poor, I can't trust that someone in 10' could take it is genuine money.

It's definitely a counterfeit, but whether it is contemporary or a modern fake I don't know for 100% certain. I am doing research on it.  |

there is no E in united states, and the D in god is backwards, I don't believe this was ever intended to fool anyone.

Just a very poor counterfeit. Here is a picture of an actual lead cast contemporary.  Edited by JimmyD

I think it was someone's experiment.

After some time examining the images and doing some research, it looks like this is an extremely poor modern counterfeit. I was incorrect in my post in the other thread.  |

I've seen a number of contemporary counterfeits, cast pot metal, like the one posted by JimmyD.
I agree with SilverDollar2017 .... Modern or possibly mid 20th century fake; possibly play money.

Doesn't look like a contemporary, looks like a modern and not a recent modern.

Almost looks like WWI trench art.

Seems like a lot of effort for such a poor result.

The Barber Coin Collectors' Society has a page of contemporary counterfeit images on their website http://barbercoins.org/CCounterfeits.shtmlI'm in agreement that the coin in question isn't a contemporary counterfeit. As to when or where it was made I have no idea. -MV |
