<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Circa Antiques, post: 3046724, member: 94536&quot;]I&#039;ve seen several discussions here that touched on Peter Rosa and his &quot;replicas&quot; of Colonial coins. I have a group of 8 of these that I picked up as part of a tray lot in an auction about a dozen years ago. Seven are in a bin of coin stuff (see photo link) in storage, but one somehow ended up in my jewelry box (I must have been carrying it around at some point... I do this with stuff). When I noticed it the other day I was prompted to revisit these coins, which lead me to discover this awesome site.</p><p><br /></p><p><i>None</i> of these are marked anywhere with &quot;Becker&quot; or &quot;copy&quot; or any other mark signifying a replica, which leads me to believe that Rosa produced them in the late 1960&#039;s when he was protesting the Hobby Protection Act.</p><p><br /></p><p>My question is whether these are collectible and if they have any value these days? I know Charlie Doyle is doing a brisk business with his &quot;replicas of Rosa&#039;s replicas&quot;, but those are a whole &#039;nother animal. Are Peter Rosa&#039;s &quot;original&quot; replicas, and especially those with no markings on them, something special today?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]761392[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]761393[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>All of them : <a href="https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipPPjyxmpdHQZUek2OyIUA5bm0-SJ6stdAolrjiPssjBfrPxibgp5_OlUMboaWkbhg?key=aWg3YnNaQWl3UjJXQTdLaHBUc3FUb2t6QVQzalhR" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipPPjyxmpdHQZUek2OyIUA5bm0-SJ6stdAolrjiPssjBfrPxibgp5_OlUMboaWkbhg?key=aWg3YnNaQWl3UjJXQTdLaHBUc3FUb2t6QVQzalhR" rel="nofollow">https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipPPjyxmpdHQZUek2OyIUA5bm0-SJ6stdAolrjiPssjBfrPxibgp5_OlUMboaWkbhg?key=aWg3YnNaQWl3UjJXQTdLaHBUc3FUb2t6QVQzalhR</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
