<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 7772659, member: 19463&quot;]While I am wrong at least half of the time on yes/no questions, I do not believe these coins are &#039;counterfeits&#039; made to fool people but more on the order of the US hard Times and Civil War coins made to fill a need caused by some political/economic &#039;situation&#039;.&nbsp; I seems unlikely that they will ever be understood even half as well as the official coins of their era but they do hold interest and, I believe, are a significant part of the economy in the regions where they have been found.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
