The coloration of the metal, and the crude details, especially of the date and lettering are all wrong. This isnt a typical fake made to fool collectors, it was made to fool merchants, much like you would with a counterfeit 20 dollar bill today. The condition issues were most likely done on purpose to make it look circulated and help it blend in with real coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>These do have collector value as they aren't terribly common.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
