The Massachusetts one is similar to, but also very different from the one listed in my Red Book as "unique" and residing in the Massachusetts Historical Society Collection.

I was thinking the same thing. I am 100% sure it is a replica. The other stuff isn't worth much individually, but maybe $200-$300, depending on the dates of the American stuff. Quite a nice collection. "Coin-"grats!

Yours is also similar to, but different from the replica Pine Tree Copper found here: Own a Piece of History, coin replicas of our past, Whispering Dream Pewter, coins and information, history and sets
Seems that there are a bunch of replicas of that one out there. If real, it would be worth a cool mil or so...

Kindest regards,
Kantuck


thanks all.. yea i figured but im keeping it , ty for that link i saw the one on coinreplicas.com and it said they have the word 'copy' on the pine side, and a book says also to look for copy on the edges, mine has no mismarks, weighs about 14.5g .... dunno cool though, really, regardless

and also weird my dad is from boston, mass quincy area and had it since the 40's50s from his grandfather so i really dont know family airloom pos or not

All looks pretty common. The value is the silver. Always worth checking every coin though, things can slip by for years.

Are any of the quarters dated before 1925? Some of them can be worth a good amount. I just finished that set and it was not a cheap one! 1916 is worth some big bucks.
