[QUOTE="JCro57, post: 4239457, member: 92083"]ahhh. i gotcha. I guess what I am trying to say is that in my opinion, if (1) the planchet was made by the approved Mint contractor, and (2) the approved dies were made/hubbed by Mint employees, then an unathorized strike cannot be a "counterfeit." [I]What's fake about it, the planchet?[/I] No. [I]Were The dies that struck the designs into it made outside the Mint's control?[/I] No. An unatuhorized or illegal strike is just that- not approved for Mintage. The actual planchet/coin is not counterfeit.[/QUOTE]
