I need help with the attribution on the 1776 Dollar.
sorry about the bad pics
But wanna play guess the grades on the three dollars
I know the attribution on the bust but your welcome to test your skill at that one too.

UUUUHHHH....Fake!?

I really don't know, but the first one looks like a fake. Unless it's one of those restrikes.

Last one looks like a fake too...the dentils look funny near the bottom on the obverse.

I don't know bust dollars at all.

You might want to get TDN's opinion on the Trade and bust dollars.

The Continental Dollar is a genuine Newman 2-C variety and a pretty nice one.

Fair enough...you would know better than I. It looks so different from any of the other Continental dollars that I have seen, are the different varieties THAT different. This is what I am used to seeing.

Wow, now that's a coin!! (the 1776)

Typical day on the US coin forum... the OP shows three awesome coins that anyone on here would be thrilled to own, if they could afford it.... and the accusations of AU55, cleaned, fake, etc. start flying.

Seriously, those are some killer coins, though the photos and lighting just don't highlight their best attributes. If you had posted PCGS TruView photos of them, everyone would be complementing them.
