Among some of the other great coins currently being Auctioned by S-B, is a collection of non-coins (i.e. contemporary counterfeits).
And low-and behold, it is the collection of David Wnuck - both a member here and a great dealer.
Collection can be viewed Here
Examples:
1795 Eagle
Large Collection of counterfeit mostly 2 Reales by die marriage; other denominations as well (example below)
Linky
Unfortunately I've already been outbid on a few examples, but I'm looking to see how this unusual collection does at auction!

Dave's last name is spelled Wnuck, mine is Wnuk. Just got a CAC submission back and Dave's name was hand written on the order tracking label instead of mine. A few years ago, another dealer said he nearly shipped my order to Dave.
<< <i>Can the Secret Service confiscate any of the US counterfeits since they are technically legal tender?
They can confiscate the genuine Washington quarter in your pocket if they want. What are you gonna do about it??
