What is your favorite counterfeit CBH variety?

Let me know your answer in the comments section. Feel free to explain why it is your favorite variety too!


One of my favorites is 1838 Davignon 5-F nicknamed 'Horse Face'. The overall die work is relatively crude compared against most other hand-made die struck counterfeit CBHs. I have other favorites too, and I'm looking forward to hearing what your opinions are!

The 1842 1/A is one of my favorites. Van Harvey, a good friend from the BHNC, cherried one for me at a small show in Indiana, PA. It was the last show we attended together before Van passed away. Van didn't collect contemporary counterfeits, but he had a good eye for them and was able to obtain several die marriages with his help.
