I wouldn't say that I am really familiar with this act, but I'm not aware of any part of it that legalizes the ownership of pattern pieces. I...
If you intend to sell a coin, the key is to make the images look as close as possible to the coin in hand. The images that you provided here are...
VF-20.
Generally speaking the obverse stars are a dead giveaway on business strike seated liberty coinage. Beyond that, the rims should be well defined...

Buy them now at a premium if you have too. It would likely cost you much more to buy the coin raw and submit them (perhaps multiple times) to get...
I'm eagerly awaiting the arrival of Penny Whimsey today. I believe I'm going to cross of the word penny with a magic marker and write cent above...
Thats past line of sight, pretty cool. The ones i had as a kid barely made it two blocks.
