Thanks Cal, now I'm hungry for a burger. Seriously coins are not the only thing that's faked. Anything that will make a dollar will continue to be...
I don't remember exactly but around 1500 give or take. These days my focus is on 1793 - 1814. Mainly buying 1794's to get as many varieties as...
I inherited all them I own but one. It's graded ag-3 and I paid over $1500 15 years ago. So yes they are costly. Estimated around a 1000 remain.
The only one I don't have is the strawberry leaf. I have several graded chains. The grandkids love the bonfires where we play "how long does it...
I guess I could use them as pocket pieces for a few years and then buy a vine and bars stamp to finish the edge out. Cha-Ching! These fakes are...
I reported the seller. There might be millions of fakes out there. I'm still going to buy them (large cents) study and photograph them and burn...

I almost forgot this. The same seller had a bunch of early flowing hair silver dollars that sold almost immediately. I sure hope they don't fall...
I'm not keeping them for two reasons, 1. I have thousands of real large cents and will be passing them on to my children. 2. I hate fakes. Someone...
I thought I would share photos of a 1793 chain cent and a 1793 strawberry leaf wreath cent. Both are very easy to determine they are fake. Weight...
I know my opinion means little but I'm thinking NC-6. The lowest left berry is vertical, the "F" in "OF" is double punched on the lower area and...
Thanks for the confirmation. I'm still trying to learn and helping others with their large cents on this forum. Now if I can succeed at...
The wreath cents were struck between April 8th and July 17th, 1793. Total mintage of 63,353. The op's S-11C was most likely struck July 6 th -...
The chain cents were the first coins struck at the Philadelphia mint on their own equipment. They were struck from March 1st to March 13th 1793....
I attributed these without my reference books so I'm sure someone will let me know if I'm wrong. Your coins are beautiful and thank you for sharing.
Finally the 1798 is an S-184. Low 9/Die cut across right ribbon.
1794 is an S-26. Wide 7-9 severed hair strands, projection on O on OF.
I will start with the easy one. 1814 is an S-294. I will address the other two shortly.
S-24?
Looks like an S-3 leaning R with the AMERICA reverse. Very nice coin.
