Teach us. Tell us why
3 terrible is the biggest.
Well, just Love coins, period.
Compare the photo to a real 1943 cent. Then go look at the alibaba fakes.
I imagine the counterfeiter used a real 1943 steel cent to create his false dies. Since the 1943 cent is steel, it can be hardened and used as a hub to press the design into a blank die which can then be used to strike fake copies of this coin.

the middle cent, the date tapers down to the right, no?
A few casting marks, and a reverse that is incredibly mushy and not well struck are two things that hit me immediately

Someone just having a raw 43-D copper is what hit me first.

@Hedi - Throw that counterfeit in the garbage!
No one will take this coin seriously until after it's been graded and authenticated by a major grading company such as NGC or PCGS.

You sound highly educated on the matter π
I don't know about that - I'm sure someone would pay a good premium on eBay for it!

Only if it were in a counterfeit slab.

Yup. The pic of the coin on the scale looks like a typical circulated steel cent with the dark gray color. I bet a magnet would pick that coin up.

The same goes for the top two photos, too, especially contrasted with the bronze cent beneath it, So why was all of the talk about a counterfeit bronze example?
Edited to add: The original post did state "... this NO magnet attraction wheat."

What may I ask is the big coin on the bottom? It looks more interesting.
Thanks for all! Honestly 71yo friend know my interest give me 2penny 1944 and this. The coins still with me+400 mixed old coins. Unfortunately I can't reach any grading service in my area. I wish to find who work with me. Very cure we will make money.
Bronze is in the title of the thread..
I understand that, but the pictures appeared to indicate otherwise.
