Counterfeit 103
Obverse 2: Cast from Genuine Type II Obverse
Reverse C: Cast from Genuine Business Strike
Obverse 2 Reverse C
Comments: An obvious lead cast example weighing in at only 2.0 grams. This counterfeit was made from Type II obverse business strike as mold model and has normal coin turn reverse alignment and irregular reeding typical of poorly cast pieces. The mold inlet appears to be at 8:00 on the obverse based on partial reeding in that location.
Plate Coin: Rare American Coins Inventory, F-VF Grade Estimate
