<p>[QUOTE="mikem2000, post: 1387242, member: 30574"]I too have an interest in these nickels but that was the biggest problem I found. Which ones were original and which ones were modern. There really is no way to tell. My definition of original, would be the reason it was gold plated was to fool someone into thinking it was $5.00 gold. Modern would be to fool someone it was a racketeer nickel or it was made as a novelty.</p><p><br /></p><p>Since I could not get past this, I did not purchase one.</p><p><br /></p><p>Mike[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
