<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ernie11, post: 2308336, member: 1845&quot;]I did send a questionable coin in to ANACS decades ago when I was young, and they returned it with the opinion that it was not genuine.&nbsp; Looking at the coin now, it&#039;s an obvious counterfeit.&nbsp; Oddly enough I can&#039;t part with it for sentimental reasons, as it was among a group of coins I inherited from my grandfather when he passed away.&nbsp; He was a retail merchant when he was younger in my hometown, and I often wondered if he got it in change from a customer, or how he ended up owning it.</p><p><br /></p><p>I also keep it because it is probably a slightly collectable counterfeit, as it is an 1872-CC dime. There is a great website on Liberty Seated Dime counterfeits and a doppelganger image of my dime appears there:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.seateddimevarieties.com/cf_date/cf_date_mintmark.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.seateddimevarieties.com/cf_date/cf_date_mintmark.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.seateddimevarieties.com/cf_date/cf_date_mintmark.htm</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
