<p>[QUOTE="Jaelus, post: 3575861, member: 46237"]Yes, but I don't believe the 1804 dollar was purposely created as a fantasy piece, but rather with the intent of it being a reissue (though that was incorrect). Also, restrikes of a type need not have a date in the actual run of the coin - many restrikes use dates that did not have business strikes issued to differentiate them as restrikes. My point is more that the dollars are slabbed as 1804 dollars and not 1804-dated restrikes. The same goes for the 1964 dated coinage. What would happen if there was a way to conclusively identify the real date based on die markers?</p><p><br /></p><p>I agree with your assessment of the two types. I collect in the US and so was largely unaware of these "restrikes" until recently. They are not listed in any catalogs of restrikes since they aren't considered restrikes. In talking to advanced modern collectors in Hungary, the market does care about them and doesn't consider them to be originals, though confusingly there also isn't a conclusive way to identify them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
