1806 Seated Dollar Giveaway!!! ... Updated: Winner is mkman123

rjsvt

Yeah, I know it's a fake or some kind of fantasy piece. I found it in some old office furniture, got excited for a few seconds until I took a closer look. I have no clue about the composition. It weighs 19.6 grams, so I doubt it's silver.

Anyone is free to enter. I'll make a list of names (one entry per person), and pick the winner in a couple days.

It would be great if somebody could share it with others and maybe educate some folks on counterfeits, or trick your child numismatist, but if you collect counterfeits or just think it's cool, please enter.



Nice crisp stars and a beautiful font


If anyone has any more info about this particular fake, please speak up. Thanks.


Update 4/8/10: Used a random number generator to pick the winner... mkman123... congratulations!!!!!

Shame it's not a 1804

Thanks for the chance

Billet7

Sweet, it would match my 1806 twenty cent piece! (No, I don't actually have one.)

Batman23

A neat conversation piece. Thanks for the chance.

66Tbird

Thanks for the chance. I normally don't do many giveaways and the YN have a better chance. But now I have a new coin buddy with more $ than sense. This would make a good lesson for him.

AngryTurtle

I fall into the "I think its cool" category. Always been interested in counterfeits, especially contemporary (Dont think this one is contemporary). First thing that caught my eye was the widde rims. Never actually owned one (at least that I know about ). Been keeping my eyes open for a Henning nickel.

Meltdown

Very cool. Thanks for the interesting giveaway!

I'll put it in my coffee table conversation collection.

PipestonePete

I thinks it's a cool piece too. And so is Meltdown's coffee table conversation collection.
