Hello

First one is a Trade dollar pattern, it appears to be silver so I'm wondering if there is more value to this.
Second is a Greek coin of which I'm uncertain if it is authentic.

to CCF. Please post one full coin photo of each obverse & reverse. Are they magnetic? Weight? Both look fake from these photos.

Not too sure about the first coin, But the second..

It may be real.. Need to see both sides.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trade...States_coin)

there were 3 Trade dollar patterns made
In the photo below, it looks like the first coin. BUT, need much better pictures to be positive (front and back)

Thank you for the welcomes.
Both are not magnetic and glide slowly from a magnet.
They appear to be silver.
Here are the reverse sides.
Thank you for the replies.

Im having a hard time getting the full coin on a decent crop.
The Trade dollars looks exactly the same as the pattern one posted.
Looks exactly as the first model from the 3

At the moment I doubt the Trade dollar is genuine, however, there are no large well focused pics to see the detail on both sides.

Still need a few good pictures of the trade coin. hi res cropped to only show the coin with minimal background showing.
that will help us to determine if this coin is real or not.

I found a FAKE trade coin that also looks like your coin..
Pictures will be essential for us to help you.

Both coins are certainly not genuine.

The Trade dollar is 100% fake.
