<p>[QUOTE=&quot;billzzz, post: 1633946, member: 34171&quot;]Hi everyone. I was wondering if 99% of 1787 small head Ct. coppers are contemporary counterfeits or electrotype. I live in Ct. and picked up a very nice example. Too nice in fact. I assumed it was an electrotype. The question I have is; what would an original weigh. Mine weighs 9.8 grams. Also what should one look for as a tip-off that a colonial coin is an original electrotype. I had seen some of the original electrotypes over 30 years ago and they undetectable. Thanks for any help.
