My Local Coin Shop Dealer knows I like his junk,Mercury/Liberty Dimes. He had some really, nice, junk, Mercs, he wanted me to check out, separated from the rest. He said they came from a coin changer vendor, which they probably did. This is some of what we found:
Beauties, but counterfeit! Except for the Canadian Dime, that slipped into the picture, somehow.
I have heard that the coin machines, can be adjusted and set to spot specific, real money coins, or slugs or coins from particular countries and accept or reject almost any coin.
Notice the angle, of the 1945, is off a bit. The 1916, not as bad. There were many different dates, but none had any mint marks. I did notice, that the fakes felt a little light, in weight, but only after, I knew they were fakes. Beware, but not scared. These are the first and only fakes, I've ever seen.
This is not intended to be any kind of financial advice. This is all about a fun hobby, of collecting, stacking & sharing Silver Coins, Treasures, and such. Thanks again for checking it out, on #silvergoldstackers, where Stackers show & share their treasures, thought & ideas.
