JAPAN. Counterfeit Ansei Trade Dollar (3 Bu or San Bu), ND (1859). EXTREMELY FINE.
cf.KM-101.3. A curious counterfeit which not only exhibits false Japanese countermarks which are sometimes found on genuine host coins, the host coin here is also a poorly made falsehood being made of cast base metal and having a mintmark which does not exist. For the specialist collector who wishes to further study counterfeit punches. EXTREMELY FINE.
Estimate: $50.00- $100.00
