CBH -- Who Are The Experts on Contemporary Counterfeits?

PROMETHIUS88

Saturday, I picked up a collection of just run of the mill stuff that walked in the door. These were the last coins the guy pulled out of his "bag". The edges look right, the weight on all of them was right, or within a gram. I just didn't think they had the right look to them. I don't do a ton with CBH stuff unless it's graded and it's not like these walk in with every collection. I leaned toward them being contemporary counterfeits and then I dived into the research from Davignon. I'm trying to match the information but I just can't confirm if these are a match or am I just way off and they are indeed real. Can anyone here assist? I'm happy to post good pics of the front and back of each coin.

Thanks!

They all look immediately good to me, meaning they are all US Mint products and not contemporary counterfeits.

First thought when they came out was good. Then I began to question myself having 3 that had nearly identical color/wear. A couple sounded a little different sound "dropping" them on the counter.
I'm glad to be wrong and can always use more education in areas I am weak.
Thanks!

I see nothing wrong with them.

They are authentic.

OwenSeymour

Those are all genuine

RedRocket

Authentic, as stated by experts above.
Interestingly, a couple of them would be worth a bit more if they were contemporary counterfeits.

All genuine.

I own numerous Davignon varieties, in addition to my bust half-dollar Federal issues.

They look fine to me at first glance, and I don't believe that counterfeit circ BH's are a big issue for the hobby.
If you're able to attribute them, that should give you plenty of comfort.
