HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 24878 Posts	Posted 05/04/2023 9:17 pm Counterfeit 1856 Flying Eagle cents are discussed in this thread. It seems that your coin has many characteristics of a fake. At best it's an altered 1858; at worst a total con job. http://goccf.com/t/282491 Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Edited by HondoB 05/04/2023 9:22 pm Report this Post to the Staff

westcoin Pillar of the Community United States 9792 Posts	Posted 05/04/2023 9:48 pm An obvious counterfeit, I'd say the coin is a cast copy, and not an altered date, possible a cast planchet struck from spurious dies. LetsGo0o0o - Your comment is also a bit harsh, we are all here to learn and share knowledge. We don't like disparaging remarks, nor need them here. There are plenty of places on the Internet where it's not a family friendly atmosphere. I'm sure if needed Bobby can stop in and explain things better.

MisterT Pillar of the Community United States 2001 Posts	Posted 05/05/2023 06:48 am the first thing I noticed that screams fake was the upright of the 5 not centered over the ball. So many things wrong with this forgery. Report this Post to the Staff
Maine Member Valued Member United States 450 Posts	Posted 05/05/2023 07:07 am Hey Martinez, tell us what your opinion of the coin is. If you think it is legit, send it to NGC or PCGS. Prepare yourself for the results. The majority of this board already knows what the result will be. Report this Post to the Staff
