Gary is the expert, so I thank him for answering your post as well. :)
I guess you don't get it sir. I am saying the 1970's looked like "low mintages" compared to the 60's, the 80's looked like "low mintages" compared...
There is 40 years of straight down history in mintages sir. Just because you believe current mintages are "low" does not mean they will be viewed...
I for one would like to see any "true rarity" coming out of the mint. Even if mintage is "only" 10,000, those 10,000 will be pristine forever....
Yeah, I would trust verdicare more than toothpaste. Problem with using things like that is you do not know what else is in there, and the long...
If I saw it at a show I would not believe its authentic. The poor quality of the fields and rims make it look like some kind of poorer quality...
I bought a few at the coin show yesterday for $1.50 each. I guess my little copper stash would be the wheat bags sitting in the closet, ticking...
Yes, many believe in outreach. However, every single organization who works on such outreach use the same tired, clichéd, and erroneous reasons to...
Yeah, but the problem with that argument is I have been hearing it forever. Heck, in the 70's when I was a child collector people were all saying...

I agree even lower graded coins can and are faked, this looks like a lot of damaged coins. The 184X expecially has just been clobbered into...
I would say both in the AU53ish range.
Are you sure its an official mint set, and not an aftermarket set?
Well I am not an expert in these, just been around them for 35 years. I would like to see what real experts in these say.
Actually, after posting the second one, BOTH dates look wrong. I wonder if they are fakes now.
Me too. My bad. :(
Yeah, I see it in Jeff's pic, but not the OP's pic. Whew, that is pretty danged atrocious looking. The sad part is to think of how many of these...
I wonder if the fake Morgans have the word COPY as required by law on them?
Separate names with a comma.
