1804 S-266c Electrotype Copy F12. A well-executed copy with attractive, glossy medium brown surfaces showing olive brown toning in protected areas. The dies are rotated to simulate the usual position seen on the genuine examples, but a tell-tale seam around the edge gives away its secret. LDS ...

"1804" S-256 of 1803 with date altered to 1804 G6. Excellent engraving on smooth surfaces. A great job except that the host coin is clearly an 1803 S-256, and the cud break that touches the first T in STATES indicates this is the late die state of those dies. Glossy dark steel brown and chocol ...

1799/8 S-188 Electrotype Copy VF20. Glossy dark olive brown with lighter steel brown high points. An extremely well executed electrotype copy, and dangerous as such. You have to search long and hard with a strong glass to detect any edge seam or underlying base metal. The "clunk" sound when ta ...

"1799" S-174 of 1798 with date altered to 1799 G4. Sharpness VF20 but moderately corroded, probably done purposely to help hide the date alteration. A rather deceptive alteration, nonetheless, one of the better ones. Roughness effectively hides the engraving and the result could fool some coll ...

"1799" S-153 of 1798 with date altered to 1799 AG3. Glossy chocolate brown and smooth except for some shallow pitting on the upper part of the obverse. Reasonably good engraving that might pass with a novice, but the cud break that joins the bust to the rim attests to the late die state of S-1 ...

"1799" S-148 of 1798 with date altered to 1799 G5. Dark steel and olive, the obverse rather glossy but the reverse matte. The engraving was done with excellent skill and is effectively hidden under minor roughness added to hide the truth, but the Style I Hair was a foolish mistake. But then, i ...
