1838-O No Stars
Counterfeit 101
Obverse 1: No Stars
Reverse A: Open Bud Reverse, Small O
Obverse 1 Reverse A
Comments: The obverse appears to be well matched to F-101 Obverse 1, however the date on the above specimen is further right than on F-101. Counterfeit Obverse 1 is paired with an Open Bud reverse. Further research of the Small O mintmark is needed for potential association with known New Orleans working dies. This example is the only one known to Brian Greer.
