Greetings, Brand New here. I purchased a copy of 1804 US Silver Dollar. I received it yesterday and I'm a bit confused as to its origins and composition. Here is the ad for coin:
"Beautiful Proof-Like Replica of the famous RARE 1804 US Silver Dollar, with the word COPY on the eagles' breast. In sealed hard plastic capsule. Reeded edge, with the notation .999 Fine Silver. and I think Maybe a serial number I can't make out. Gorgeous luster in Real Life,
1.3 ounces (38 grams) including the capsule. 15 known copies of the original."
Also strange is it has a reeded edge on half of it, then its smooth with the text: " .999 Fine Silver CA 01368"
I don't know if I need to return it or What. I did a google search and could only find one match for a coin that looks like this. 1804 Class I Silver Dollar Replica Archival Edition look here
Any thoughts? Worth keeping?
Thanks,
Mike
