1877
Counterfeit 101
Obverse 1: Crude Obverse Die
Reverse A: Excessively Crude Reverse Die
Obverse 1 Reverse A
Comments: Recently located by Jason Feldman at the June 2008 Baltimore show. Both obverse and reverse have crude devices, especially the reverse with a simple outline of the wreath. The ribbon bow was formed with two circular engravings, the left image similar to a New Orleans mintmark. The obverse legend and date are poorly engraved.
Plate Coin: Jason Feldman Collection, VF-EF Grade Estimate
