1926 Peace Dollar - Liberty Dollar

I think that from all years the Peace Dollar was struck (1921 -1928) (1934 -1935) there are Chinese made counterfeit peace dollars in circulation. Most of these counterfeit dollars, like the one we are showing on this page, are made from copper with a very thin silver layer. We used some silver dip on the counterfeit coin to show you that copper layer.  We said most counterfeit coins as we have also one which has been mode from a sort of composite metal which does not show a lower layer when polished.
