Sorry -- here's the 55 Double Die[ATTACH]
These circulated freely in the mid-1950's. I did grocery carry-outs in the 1953-1957 period for tips and accumulated a small jar of fake nickels...
Since I'm a US Large Cent guy, my favorite "Contemporary Counterfeits" are the two shown below. Both bring *MUCH* more than originals of their...
Barry, those are absolutely LOVELY!
Nice decent coin. The important question is not "Do *I* like it?", but "Do *YOU* like it?". If you like it, *BUY* it. The question is not "What...

My only bust halves are obvious overdates. Here are a few of my favorites[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Nothing wrong with the die; defective planchet. GREAT COIN!
I'm not that much into gold, but I noticed a few postings of California fractionals and those *DO* interest me. My own collection has a mere...
