canadanz Valued Member United States 273 Posts	Posted 01/28/2011 1:45 pm Quote: One other question... if counterfeiting Trade dollars, why choose 1885 as a date? Wouldn't it make more sense to choose a more common date? My local B&M has a counterfeit 1798 Trade dollar, lol. It's a pretty awesome coin, and he won't sell it to me :( I don't understand why they don't use realistic dates? I mean, the Trade dollar didn't exist until 75 years after the date on the coin. Screwy. Edited by canadanz 01/28/2011 1:47 pm Report this Post to the Staff

vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 02/07/2011 03:30 am Right away, the weakness in the obverse devices, head details, date & fields, all threw up flags for me as not a genuine coin. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
