1861
Counterfeit 102
Obverse 1: Irregular and Oversized Date Digits
Reverse B: Crude Device Elements

Obverse 1 Reverse B
Comments: A crude example from poorly engraved dies. By far the most common counterfeit seated dime in copper or brass type metal. Only one white metal coin seen as above with a different reverse die. It is uncertain if this second reverse is the same as previously seen on a bronze/copper example of 1861 101.
Plate Coin: B. Greer Collection, G-VG Grade Estimate
