<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JCro57, post: 3584151, member: 92083&quot;]I just acquired these interesting pieces. Presented are an obverse die, a reverse die (Mercury Dime), and two examples - one from each die. </p><p><br /></p><p>Questions for y&#039;all...</p><p><br /></p><p>1. Anyone ever seen a die like this specific kind before?</p><p><br /></p><p>2. Other than guessing it is from China, is there any way to know where it was made? (Obviously, there are no markings on it).</p><p><br /></p><p>3.Why counterfeit a common date (1939 Philadelphia)? Maybe to test skills and then advance to a rarer coin? To hide or reprocess bullion/bars by putting them in coin form?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]956638[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]956639[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]956640[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]956641[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
