<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SilverWilliesCoinsdotcom, post: 2884975, member: 86795&quot;]I believe the Originals that were counterfeited by gold plating in the 18 hundreds were rim edged, a fairly laborious effort. At the time though $5 was a lot of money, and worth the extra work to pass off the fake. Oddly, as The Story Goes, the perpetrator was never convicted at trial as he was a deaf mute and his lawyer argued that he never specifically said they were real gold coins. and I cannot remember the guys name. Sorry.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
