My New US Gold Dollars

[gmarguli]

I'm not usually a fan of gold or a big US coin collector in general, but these two US gold dollars just called out to me. They are common dates.

 

 

 

The 1862 was not cooperating with my camera and I had a horrible time imaging it. In person the color is the same and it looks much more like the obverse picture than the reverse picture.

Nice Gold there Gregg. I can see how easy it would be for gold to call. It's irresistable

They are common dates.

Greg, I don't know the condition, but in unc. grades, I wouldn't say that the 1858 is "common". Either way, I like the look of it.

They're pretty cool and I was actually surprised that you posted US gold.

Isn't this the first time you posted part of your U.S coin collections on this board?

Thanks for sharing (thumbs u

Nice coins Greg

Thanks for all the kind words. Given the fact that they are both counterfeit, I personally think they look exceptional.

Greg, as I mentioned in my PM - I don't recall ever having seen counterfeits with color like that, assuming that the color is portrayed accurately.

The first thing I did when you posted this thread was take out a book on gold counterfeits, but I decided to go along with the post and see where you would take us.

Well, I don't really know anything about these, so put me down in the "I was fooled" category as well. They still look nice, even if they are fake.
