I just put a 14x loupe on the area and I think that what you might be interpreting as lettering is actually a rim ding Chris.

I wasn't sure what it is, but it was worth a try to see. I'm pretty certain that it is not your typical O/C strike, though.

Very nice example of a clashed die (left)! I get the feeling Rascal would want us to believe the photo-shopped 1815 coin on the right is actually a clashed die.

although this coin has some suspicous looking areas in the fields of it I still thank it is a genuine error coin. I could be wrong and it sure would not be the first time. some fake coins will fool about anyone where the counterfeiters make their own dies.

whats u talking about , the photo on the right? anyone can tell that two of the photos is overlay photos. that poor old dead horse , you need to stop beating on him LOL

There is nothing about that bust half to suggest either a contemporary or modern counterfeit die.

Rascal, If that bust half is a fake I'll eat YOUR shoe.

Hey don't eat my old shoe. I never said anything was a fake . I have no idea where you came up with that. I only mentioned that two of the photos was overlay photos and they are. I never said a word about the clashed die bust coins.

If you was referring to post #155 I was talking about the off center cent coin and someone was posting at the same time as me and put these bust half dollar photos on here.

I see. There's nothing about the off-center cent to suggest a fake die either.

You are right and the coin looks to be a real mint error.

There! Now I've added some knowledge to this thread! I feel like I've contributed too, now.
