                        genuine 1899 Barber half dollar with a silver plug. This is

                        the first Barber half overstrike and easily one of the boldest

                        overstrikes. Truly awesome!

                                         

OT3                 1792 Silver Center cent reproduction with brass center plug                  $45.00

                        struck over a genuine Shield nickel. The “5” is quite clear on

OT4                 1796 Draped Bust dime reproduction struck over a genuine                  $45.00

                        1883 Liberty Seated dime with a brass plug. Full date is

                        weak but visible and this is the first overstrike on a Seated

                        some green but shows reverse details well. This is the first

                        Two Cent piece overstruck by a Bar Copper repro. There was

                        an improper alloy mix that makes this almost golden in color.
