<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jim M, post: 1416697, member: 4791&quot;]Interesting Thread.&nbsp; I read through the first 7-8 pages.&nbsp; Thought I would drop my &quot;opinion&quot; on this subject</p><p><br /></p><p>First let me say that DC is very good at what he does, His work is fantastic!&nbsp; &nbsp; I think if he had stuck to his original works there would NEVER be any controversy about his items.&nbsp; &nbsp; Let me toss this out..&nbsp;&nbsp; Mr. China makes a 1893S Morgan Dollar, we have all seen them and screamed FAKE, COUNTERFEIT etc.. (Yes I am guilty as well)&nbsp; Same person makes a 1903CC Morgan <a href="http://fakes.numismetrica.com/2012/03/20/1903-cc-morgan-dollar-cf-1-1903cc-001/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://fakes.numismetrica.com/2012/03/20/1903-cc-morgan-dollar-cf-1-1903cc-001/" rel="nofollow">(HERE)</a> we scream the same thing. EVEN though there was never one minted.&nbsp; Is this a fake or is it a fantasy piece?</p><p><br /></p><p>Daniel has capitalized on a business opportunity not much different than the folks in China if you think about it.&nbsp; People are willing to purchase so why not supply!&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I am NOT saying Daniel is a counterfeiter because I certainly dont see it that way, his intent is to make a fantasy piece, their intent is to defraud.&nbsp; We as collectors should know the difference in the coins.&nbsp; I see that Green (I think it was) mentioned 2-3 generations from now saying its a real 1964 Peace Dollar..&nbsp;&nbsp; there is alot of truth in that statement because they are speaking what THEY feel is the truth.&nbsp; Much like the 1909SVDB&#039;s that I see ALOT that are fakes.&nbsp;&nbsp; Here is a question for a few of the folks here.&nbsp; What if.......&nbsp; &nbsp; Daniel made a fantasy coin of the 1909SVDB, Looks the same but for grins, he changes the VDB to BVD and advertises it as an underwear Lincoln Cent.&nbsp; Want to bet me that we would be seeing these things left and right with people saying they found an error?</p><p><br /></p><p>There is a place for what Daniel does because people are buying them, but I have also seen people purchase weird stuff on ebay.&nbsp;&nbsp; If you like them, purchase them.&nbsp; If you dont, then dont purchase them. If the Guberment had an issue they would of jumped on him long ago.</p><p><br /></p><p>Fake or Fantasy?&nbsp; <a href="http://fakes.numismetrica.com/2012/04/05/1963-cc-seated-liberty-dollar-cf-s1-1963-0001/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://fakes.numismetrica.com/2012/04/05/1963-cc-seated-liberty-dollar-cf-s1-1963-0001/" rel="nofollow">(HERE)</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
