I was referring more to design features, like the folds in Ms. Liberty’s gown and the details on the Eagle. The artwork on the counterfeit is not...
Sorry, but you photo is over exposed and too bright to tell much of anything about the coin. I'd say that it's bright and Mint State, but beyound...
Well, at least we can agree on that point. I remember when "Coin World" was reporing White's theories on silver coin toning as front page news of...
Type collectors are generally happy with two pieces. The "Matron Head" (1816 to 1839) This 1820 large cent is from the Randal Hoard and is a...
I don't have an 1875-CC Trade Dollar, but here is an 1877-S that was made from the same design tools. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Here is the counterfeit...
