It is a counterfeit, unfortunately. Probably a cheap magnetic metal.

I wonder what it's made out of. I feel like if you torched it you'd probably be inhaling some weird Chinese garbage that's gonna kill you.

Once again... you only have to read the post to answer the question... no need to see the coin...

Recently, I met with someone who had some "old dollars" that he just had to show me. Three 179x flowing hair dollars, two Seated Liberty dollars, and two Trade dollars. All fake! I think he really thought he was going to score. Unbelievable! He'll have to find someone else to buy those from him.

I proceeded to to buy all the 90% junk silver at a little under spot. One of the Walking Liberty halves was in a very old flip. Fortunately, it wasn't the "bad" plastic ... so not hazy... and has beautiful luster. It is beautiful ... perhaps MS-64 to MS-65.

Had he not tried to sell me fake dollars... I would have gladly paid him quite a bit more for that half dollar.


I also picked up a bunch of Wheat Pennies... in one holder there were two pennies. The one you couldn't read the date one was a 1914-D ... score! I didn't know until I got home. There were his grandfather's. He must have hid it for a reason.
