<p>[QUOTE=&quot;snaz, post: 487340, member: 11315&quot;]well, here are two cast counterfeit &quot;Silver&quot; Dollars. These are Horribly done, and I can&#039;t imagine anyone would be fooled. But here are some pictures for you folks to save to your computers if you&#039;d like. I picked them up for 5 dollars each.</p><p>Seated Liberty:</p><p>You can tell this is a counterfeit because:</p><p>The stars on the obverse are not uniform in shape.</p><p>It is Magnetic.</p><p>Look at the date.</p><p>The reeded edge is randomly missing reeds.</p><p>The denticles are not uniform in spacing and size.</p><p>Upon close magnification the stars and Lady Liberty are &quot;grainy and pitted&quot;.</p><p>Surprisingly the weight is 27.36 grams. relatively close to the necessary weight.</p><p><img src="http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh261/snaz101/DSC00592.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh261/snaz101/DSC00593.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Here is the Flowing hair Dollar:</p><p>20.90 grams as opposed to 26.96 grams</p><p>the stars are not uniform.</p><p>Grainy details</p><p>missing denticles</p><p>Rotated reverse</p><p>The left wing does not stick past the wreath</p><p>Is that a chicken or an eagle?</p><p><img src="http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh261/snaz101/DSC00590.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh261/snaz101/DSC00591.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
