Wascoin counterfeiting always viewed by the public negatively? Who would have guessed that the lowly 3cSdenomination was one of the most counterfeited coins of its era! Were the so-called ‘Soviet Mercury Dimes’,dated 1923-D and 1930-D, really made in the Soviet Union? Did you know that people were counterfeitingWashington quarters for circulation in the 21st century? Discover this information and much more in BadMetal Silver. 3cS to 25c. Thisbook is far and away the most comprehensive, previously untold, illustratedhistory covering these counterfeited coins made for circulation. While bits and pieces of this subject havebeen published in the past, their scattered nature had never placed them into ahistorical context, the motivation of counterfeiters over time was neverscrutinized, nor did numismatists realize the scope and scale of this largelyignored and forgotten subject. This bookdefines circulating contemporary counterfeit coins as known today. The author anticipatesmore new discoveries and those will be posted on the badmetalcoin.com website. All orders will receive an individually numbered and signed copy in the order in which they were placed. Winston Zack is an established author of 4 numismatic books over the last 15 years.
