look great to me, congrats
 
Hello,
Are the fakes made out of copper, or what?
Thanks for sharing your finds.

That is not a fake large cent. If anything it is an attempt at making a fake capped bust half dollar! Check out what one looks like. Your pictures make the metal appear to be tarnished silver. Perhaps it is a capped bust half dollar that got hit by a train (or a plow)?

I completely agree. That's a counterfeit capped bust half dollar. Probablymade of pewter. Pewter tends to flake like that. I found a counterfeit seated liberty half last year made of pewter. Very nice finds. :thumbsup:
 
sweet!!!! thanks for the info. I meant my fake lc has the same markings on it as this capped bust does looks like I might have a real good site to go real slow over lol lol
