<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1279509, member: 66&quot;]Except those typically look pretty crummy and do not reporduce the details anywhere near as well as they are on this piece.&nbsp; My first thought when I saw it was whether or not it might have been one of the reproductions made by Dr. Montroville Dickeson during the Centennial celebrations in 1876.&nbsp; But the die pair combination was wrong for that.&nbsp; Dickeson used obv 2 for the &quot;restrikes&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>How exact is that 25 grams figure.&nbsp; The weights I have been able to trace on the genuine silver specimens have run from 23.5 to 24.3 grams.&nbsp; A lead based pewter would be around the 25 gram range though.&nbsp; Does it look like a lead based pewter?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
