<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 1989858, member: 66"]It is also possible that this could be a counterfeit made from a mold/die created from an 1818 B-10. I see that as being distinctly possible because neither the 1 or 8 match the 1 or 8 on the 1818 either (On the 1818 the 1 is missing the left serif and the right serif is long. The 8 is much wider than what is seen on the OP coin.) If you were just altering the date on a coin you would alter the second 18, why bother with the first two?</p><p><br /></p><p>But if they made a die/mold why remove the entire date and then redo the 18?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
