continental currency 1776

Yep it's fake.
Look at the surfaces and how they are pitted and rough.
THen look at that seam on the edge. A coin that is minted will not have that.

Hello, Can anyone tell me how to tell the difference between an original 1940's-1960's Peter Rosa Becker restrike and an early 1800's Carl Wilhelm Becker restrike? Did they both make early American colonial restrikes? Thanks.

 

Hello, I have a Continental Currency Coin that I know to be a copy but I am not sure when it was struck. Based on the packaging that I found it in, I am thinking that it might be from the 1960s? I know absolutely nothing about this coin but find it to be beautiful. It looks to be either brass or bronze. I can't tell the difference. Please help if any of you experts might see a clue! Thank you, Jacoby

 

That's definitely a 19th century restrike nice one to

Thank you for your response. When you say 19th century do you mean it was a re-strike from the 1800s or 1900s? How would I know for sure?

 

It's a 1900d modern day replica prolly from the 50s-60s view the fugio cents site might give you a idea

Definitely 20th century not 19th but can't tell you anything else. Pretty neat copy though.
