    Only if the copy was made after the hobby law was enacted. And if it is an exact copy. of course, who would think you could get a chain cent for $15. image
  • This will have the word "copy" on either the obverse or reverse.
    The seller has 2 items listed for sale and it looks like he has posted pictures of just the sides without the word copy.
    The price his auction is at is getting close to double the price these sold for from the Gallery Mint Museum, the makers of these.
    This item is no longer offered by GMM, though. Looks like they sold out.
