Hacked means modified, cracked means broken into electronically. Curse you "War Games".:rolleyes:
A bit like the Morgan dollars I'd say, except that they were used like Trade dollars.
Na...budget cuts;).
Ha ha. These are pretty common actually, I picked this up for a reasonable price.

Awesome show report! 1. I was surprised that you had a picture Liberty Coin's owner there, the second branch of store is literally at the top...
I second that.
I picked this up for probably more than it's worth, but hey, it's got around 50 chop marks(happy)!:D

Sorry pics not working.
Ok, technically this counts.:D[ATTACH][ATTACH]
Absolutely fake.
All the time my friend, all the time. What can I say, their the best ones.;)
If I were going to be technical about it, than it would be a no grade because of the spot on the top left. Otherwise, I'd probably give it...
