    The Peace dollar has "COPY" in her hair. Are these being presented as US mint products?

    Actually, that's both sides of a 2-headed coin. You can buy them for $9.95 here.
    Minted by (or for) the Cook Islands apparently. 71 mg (not g) of silver. Caveat Emptor.

    If that's the case, sure. The only listing I see on eBay clearly states they are Cook Island double liberty coins.

    The Cook Islands are one of several micro-nations that partner with private mints to produce non-circulating legal tender issues for sale to the "collector" market.

    Cook Islands isn't a Micro-Nation they are an actual country (Standard Catalog describes it as a "self governing dependency of New Zealand"), and at one time at least did have their own circulating coinage. Don't know if they still do. Did as recently as 2003, and at least they no longer use the the central device they use to use for the reverse. (A fertility god that left no doubt as to the fertility. Sorry no images, family friendly you know.)

    I probably should have said "tiny" nation. The Cook Islands' total population is just over 17,000.
