Part I of my research summary article on struck counterfeit 1803 half cents.

The researched "variety" is complicated by the discovery of TWO versions, one I call the "originals" that more closely match the host genuine coin and the second that was retooled into a second I have named "restrikes" to differentiate.

Very interesting and very well illustrated article. Thanks for sharing!

 

Thank you; technically tough due to the die states of genuine C-3's!
