Listed on the Bay was this interesting example:

Wow,-Cast-Counterfeit-1800-Draped-Bust-10c

I was notified through my FB Group it was a match for one documented in the dime book back in 1984:

Wow,-Cast-Counterfeit-1800-Draped-Bust-10c

Wow,-Cast-Counterfeit-1800-Draped-Bust-10c

Did you report it?
Sometimes even after it has been sold it can be removed.

Great catch, especially matching the coin in the 1984 publication.

This post brings back some (not so pleasant) memories....I have bought 2 fakes in my 40+ years as a collector, and this was one of them.

Back in 1986 I inadvertently bought one of these counterfiets. It was sold to me as genuine by a U.S dealer in Germany. I found out it was a fake years later.

I still have it somewhere. Here is a picture of the reverse.
