<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ethan, post: 4748923, member: 68800&quot;]First I quick story, have a buddy that bought off of Ampex and said one was odd. He knew I knew Kennedy&#039;s so he asked...couldn&#039;t get the eight correct but it seemed heavy. 16 months later I get my hands on it....</p><p><br /></p><p>Sound test - not right, yet not like a clad coin either but off when directly compared with a real 1964.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Next the weight, the most important test. (I thought)</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.postimg.cc/KjPC71w0/1964-Kennedy-Fake-00.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Definitely heavy....</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Its a good fake, cast I bet, but still trying to look at it up close, USB camera doesn&#039;t work since billy gates forced me to Win10.</p><p><br /></p><p>Still a pretty good job was done here..</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.postimg.cc/jSgmh03Y/1964-Kennedy-Fake-09.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.postimg.cc/BvjyYYRL/1964-Kennedy-Fake-07.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="https://i.postimg.cc/X770K8NF/1964-Kennedy-Fake-08.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Final test, yeah I know should have been earlier but was 99% convinced it was counterfeit.</p><p><br /></p><p>The picture speaks for itself...</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.postimg.cc/8cS0C1cM/1964-Kennedy-Fake-14.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I have not been on the forums mush lately as time is precious but this is one I wanted to come back and get the news out. To me this is a very big deal. I knew it was coming. I have been watching for it. It is now fact and I sit here holding the proof.</p><p><br /></p><p>I should not accuse but we <u>ALL</u> know who is doing this, and where they come from. This is blatant theft and NOTHING is being done about it other than our country is waking up to reality I guess.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am a Kennedy Half Dollar collector, and to me this is a breaking point. Why? I know this was purchased through a major dealer of junk silver. Am I upset with them? Nah, they would replace it in a heartbeat. Actually the coin is not mine and I offered $50 for it unseen, now that I have it in hand, the offer went to $100. It is not for sale.</p><p><br /></p><p>Folks, this is a dangerous thing, over 300 million of these minted, and even they are now being counterfeited. I collected these since I was 10 years old and have never actually been able to put my hands on a fake Kennedy. Magicians coins sure, I have hand searched over $250K dollars of bank rolls and found a lot of great things, but not this.</p><p><br /></p><p>Even JUNK is not safe now.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Some articles I have found on the particular subject.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://gold-forum.kitco.com/archive/index.php/t-140545.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://gold-forum.kitco.com/archive/index.php/t-140545.html" rel="nofollow">https://gold-forum.kitco.com/archive/index.php/t-140545.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.ngccoin.com/boards/topic/384334-counterfeiting-is-sooooo-rampant-now-40-kennedys-and-a-mutiliated-1929-dime/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ngccoin.com/boards/topic/384334-counterfeiting-is-sooooo-rampant-now-40-kennedys-and-a-mutiliated-1929-dime/" rel="nofollow">https://www.ngccoin.com/boards/topic/384334-counterfeiting-is-sooooo-rampant-now-40-kennedys-and-a-mutiliated-1929-dime/</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
