    I saw this on eBay and thought people on here would like to have a laugh at the newest rarity: a monster toned 1895 two headed Morgan!

    Obverse?

    Reverse?

    It is listed under novelty coins, so at least the seller isn't claiming it to be real!

    Thoughts on the toning, NT or AT? :hilarious:

    I think we have an honest EBay seller. That's the best description for this coin I've seen in a long time.

    Since it's a magician's coin (made of two lathed down original dollars) or a pure counterfeit, it's certainly AT.

    I have to wonder. Both faces look cast, but the bottom one has a die crack.

    I'm not sure if it's struck or cast. However, casting molds can crack similarly to dies.

    I wouldn't go that far. It's theoretically possible someone could put one of these in an album for a lot of years, so you could end up with one with natural toning. This one looks like it was torched though.

    It is a nice example of a two headed, rainbow toned, forged 1895 Morgan. I will give it that.:happy:
