[net.rec.coins] Type I SLQ Counterfeits

frank@sun.UUCP (06/09/83)

Last year there were a lot of Type I Standling Liberty Quarters
discovered that were counterfeit.  ANACS was flooded with them
for a while.

(1)  Does anyone remember if they were 1917, 1917-D or 1917-S?
(2)  Does anyone still have the coin work article which described
     how to detect the counterfeits?

Many thanks.					Roger Frank
