    I don't know what kind of coin this is and don't know if it's fake or not. I do know it's about the size of dime. I tried to find something on line but no luck.

    It's a counterfeit draped bust half dime. The date and design elements are silly looking when you compare then to a real one. Still pretty cool, though. Just be sure to keep it off the market.

    @Muzzman , nearly every coin you've posted here is counterfeit. This and the 1932 D and 1932 S Washington Quarters. What's the deal? Where did these come from? Other than China, I mean...

    I don't sell fake coins of any kind. I'm totally against that. I toss them in a scrap pile.

    Weather you believe it or not, it's the truth. If I was into the fake coin scam I sure wouldn't be posting them on here and asking about them. I don't buy coins from on line or from anyone for that reason. I would appreciate that you don't look down on me like you're doing. The good thing about posting them on here and asking about them, it helps in letting others know about the fakes.

    The design elements only vaguely resemble an authentic example.

    When you find a coin metal detecting, they usually look dirty and crusty. This fake coin looks really clean, almost like it arrived from China that way. So what's your secret for cleaning? Inquiring minds want to know. :wideyed:

    Or maybe I have seen a few too many times new members posting fake coins to see which ones were the most deceptive to sell later. Your coins have no evidence of burial and are at most 10 years old. So yes, your story makes no sense and fits in well with the scenario I mentioned.

    You're crazy! I don't care what you think! I know the truth and for you to sit there and insinuate I'm a con is absurd! Only a shallow minded con would even think that themselves!
