They're not fake, my grandma gave them to me!

 

First cut them in half and see what's inside.

 

Made to exact perfectly perfect specifications.

Hey what's on the reverses, The Great White Fleet visits Shanghai or that Rodan looking Eagle from the Bridgeport commen?

 

Check for the mint mark on the reverse.
S= Shanghai
B= Beijing

 

They were striking Morgans in 1875.

 

Ouch

 

Ahead of its time.

 

Oh, not those again.

 

Those are not the only examples. A collector gave these to me for educational purposes. I wonder if the Chinese made an early 20th century date set?

 

Sherman and Mr. Peabody at it again.........

 

The Crimeese are exactly why I stopped purchasing online. Thanks for sharing.

 

I used to see the "1906 ASE" all over the place. I think I remember seeing 1909 as well.

 

I do have an 1908 example.

 

Missing sun ray

 

Obviously there was a couple dropped numbers at some point and another couple numbers dropped on those.

real rare us mint errors for shurrrrrrrr........
worth their weight in the lead core

 

How do you know that they "walked in"?

They could have been dropped from a balloon.
