    As you already have heard there are 15 specimens of 1804 dollar and all have known whereabouts , I'm taking my information from " Standard Catalog of United States Altered and Counterfeit Coins " by Hancock and Spanbauer . If you want a book on the 1804 dollar get " The Fantastic 1804 Dollar " by Eric Newman and Ken Bressett .

    Also look for any grainy areas or pits , little raised dots , tool marks , week dentrils , uneven reeding , these are just a few markers pointing to a cast coin , as a 90 year old coin would most likely be . Even if you found your coin in America I would think it fake .

    Thank's for your information. I will buy this " The Fantastic 1804 Dollar " by Eric Newman and Ken Bressett and the other one.
    I'm not judge my coin is genuine. I'm still happy and lucky to get 1 cast copy or fake of 1804 draped bust (like you said this is cast copy). This fake coin is so many mystery. Only God knows....

    Thank you very much

    best regard

    yes I know, every one in USA said is fake, even they don't have one in they hand and only look in the image on net. I'm not argue it (my coin is genuine), because I need help someone to identify my coin. Thank's for it.
    I have saw a counterfeit 1804 in my hand is difference, the weight is less than 20 grams and diameters is less than 39 mm, my coin fact not like this. Until now I believe that my coin is fake or cast copy ( is this the same, I'm not understand what a difference between fake and cast copy) even my coin is so difference with fake coin. You are the expert (very expert and I have look you picture) and you knowledge it better to judge a coin and I believe in you . It's true you don't believe that coin is genuine even the dexter given to me.:mouth: Just a joke....
    Any way is any clue about the real 1804 beside the fact in the net ? what the book said ? (I'm not have yet the book I will buy)

    best regard

    Fake, counterfeit, copy, replica, cast copy - they are all the same - just different words for the same thing.

    As was said before, there are only 15 of these coins that even exist. You can see all 15 of them right here - 1804 dollar - and you can learn a great deal about them.
