    Lotta gold bogus notes in the mix, that's cool 😎

    I like the 312.5 molds and 5.5 steel dies for counterfeiting coins

    Find it curious that Fractional notes were still being found as counterfeits in 1931.

    I am guessing that half a mold means an obverse without a matching reverse, or vice versa?

    Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.
