found this at my new site, thing is its not silver, its a counterfeit but not pewter, it seams to be copper and rang up as vdi+50. did I find a rare one or did I hit the jackpot
Believe it or not, there is a club dedicated to fake capped bust half dollars. Hey, who knew? I guess there were quite a few of them in the monetary pipeline back after the civil war. Try a little on the subject. As to the value of said counterfeits you will have to research that as well...In any case, that is a sweet find...
