Just Bob Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Made in China. Seriously, where are you finding all of these fakes? And, are you buying them? kbbpll 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWB Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Fake coin. Fake dies. Fake double strike. PS -- When Morgan dollars mate in the wild, they produce little silver half dimes..... really.... RonnieR131 and Terence:) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Bob Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 But, with whom did they mate? Aside from the 1921 issue, all coins minted during the period of Morgan dollars were female. RonnieR131 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coinbuf Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 They have the ability to transform into males for the mating season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously none of them ever mated then because I've nevers seen any half dimes after 1873. You sure it wasn't the seated dollars that mated? kenlee47 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWB Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Parthenogenesis. However, all the little half-dimes were sterile due to the design change in 1878 and died out. That's why there are none dated past 1873, and they are not found in bags of Morgan dollars. RonnieR131 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only been on this forum for a week, and seems to me Ratzie33 isn't acquiring all these fakes but making them. Probably using this forum as a test run before putting it on Ebay.

I noticed Just Bob asked him a simple, non-incriminatory question on another thread, and he never responded. Now who would not extend Just Bob, with 5,000+ posts to his credit, the courtesy of a reply? DonaldM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
