Jmgwood New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 04/13/2024 02:57 am Can anyone tell me what the "op" is on this 1856 cent? It passes the main counterfeit things to look for (AM close together, '5'verticle points to center) Thanks for the input! * Moved by Staff moved to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

ExoGuy Pillar of the Community United States 4415 Posts	Posted 04/14/2024 04:19 am IMHO, to say this item is "worthless" is a more so a personal opinion than an evaluation. Realistically, this COPY would likely fetch $5-$10 from a novice who wants a conversation piece or a flea market vendor. Like 'em or not, copies are an unavoidable trap for many, but they are a poor man's alternative to owning the real thing. Report this Post to the Staff
