Can anybody share some knowledge on these? Although though not very attractive in my opinion i find myself being drawn the bashlow confederate cents. Made from original dies(although defaced) in 1961. Heritage archives show some stuff including continental dollar restrikes, and some interesting copper blocks with die impressions. I would really like to know how much one should pay for the confederate cent raw. I like it but not enough to overpay. From what i understand 20,000 were struck in bronze in 1961.
There are many threads on Bashlow's restrikes as well as fake 1962 confederate coins. Here is one thread that is similar to the question you ask. http://www.cointalk.com/t43083/ Just put Bashlow in the search box at the top right of the page, and more will appear. Jim
