Are imitatives fake or not?

<< < (3/3)

Virgil H:
Just saw your post Ron after I posted my last one. What you say is part of why I am not yet completely satisfied yet. The coins you (and Altamura) discuss, in part, I have always considered official, even if they do imitate another coin. More when I formulate a full response.

Thanks,
Virgil

Joe Sermarini:
An imitative coin certainly can be official. Official for the imitators but not for the imitated. The term only means that it copies another type.
