    The only thing you have ever posted on this forum that I agree with. BTW, your knowledge about coins is much closer to nothing than it is little.

    Sorry for mistakening you for a male.

    Doesn't change the fact that your coin is a fake, and a crude one at that. Are you by any chance blonde? That would at least give me something to laugh at.

    If you look at the surface f my coin really close you can see it doesnt have cast bubbles they are black specks and they can be scratched off

    you csn also see how someone had made slips with a cutting tool on the letters and the moon rays ....the letters are all different from each other and they are different from all the other coins posted online ....not one of the fake coins had lettering like mine nor do any of the pewter coins

    my coin is smaller because the letters didnt fit the struck coins were made bigger and the person who engraved mine was not EG

    So Ben Franklin designed the coin ....didnt bother telling anyone about when where and who made it

    If it was supposed to be the first US dollar or at the very least one of the more important coins of early

    american history ..why os it that not one person...mentioned it ....noone knows if it was actually used or not

    and no one knows if it was a dollar or a penny ......and you expect me to believe that ........

    .the fact that it was not mentioned means it was unknown ....or its makers kept it a secret ... but why would they do that ??

    maybe the were part of a secret organization....there is enough info to prove Franklin was a freemason and a member of the lunar society ,,,,,and so were most of his peers

    but what does the masonic have to do with my coin ??

    ALOT !

    and what does the masonic have to do with me .....


    I have more than enough to prove that I am related to a man who was a partner of the soho mint he was a close friend of franklins and was a member of his lodge as well as his lunar society

    both known for their secrecy


    what has that got to do with my coin....

    common knowledge that has been known for over a century. it's why the "all seeing eye" is on the dollar bill. quit avoiding my question. 1 direct answer to my 1 direct question... why didn't you tell mr. hoge that your coin has "hong kong" imprinted on it? quit avoiding the question. give a direct answer to a very direct question.

    With each of your posts, you prove who is ignorant beyond a shadow of a doubt.

    Franklin didn't design the coin. Parts of his drawings were used on the coin.

    It wasn't supposed to be the first US dollar. No one said "hey, won't someone make a coin to show the world? Let's call it a dollar. This will be the first which means it will be important. Anyone, anyone?"

    Irisheyes, pay attention. The dollar and its 100 cent basis weren't yet conceived. The coin was only later referred to as a dollar because it was roughly the size of the omnipresent 8 Reales, on which our dollar was later based.

    Record keeping sucked. The young government had a lot of issues. And everyone is dead.

    Next time you want to ask the same dumb questions, repeat these three sentences to yourself and spare us.
