Uniface Strikes – ** edited - Just read the first three words

Creg · October 24, 2026 7:00AM

I don’t read much about uniface coins ((I read the Google ai blurb), nor see many either (in my spaces). This was cheap, from a non-numismatic seller on eBay, offered as a blank. Seller asked nine dollars starting bid. The default photo showed the blank side.
It languished for a month, I don’t buy blanks, I paid no attention. Later, I looked more closely at the offer and saw that it was blank on one side. I waited nine more days and bought it uncontested.

My questions:
Is this quarter so uninteresting that no one bought it for ten bucks after a month or more (but I)?

Or fake, perhaps?

Please post some examples - and thank you.

Are these your pictures or the seller's pictures?
Do you have the piece in hand?

I ask because this does not look plausible. If this were struck between a normal obverse die and another planchet, I would expect there to be some distortion of the upset rim on the reverse.

Please post more pictures, including the edge.
