[QUOTE="usmc60, post: 2741201, member: 76739"]If I may asked another question what are you examining your coins with.? The only reason I'm asking is because a fake coin has markers indicating that it is fake. Take for example the two Dimes that I'm showing the one at least on the right is a BU 2016 P. With signs of ben or bag marks. Look at the four head you'll see that little kris just below the hairline. Now take a look at the coin on the left that little kris almost disappears. This only tells me that something has been layered over the kris to make it start disappearing. Now you mention uncirculated no marks. To me that throws up a flag. Very few coins that I have seen from the mint that our business strike has no sign of Ben or bag marks. Going through thousands of coins a week I find it very rare to find a coin with no marks at all. I wish you the best in finding out what you have. The only other thing I could just suggest. If you have a coin show coming up in your area you may want to take it to that and have it checked out, or see if you have a coin shop in your area that can check it out for you. USMC60[/QUOTE]
