      Absolutely correct. Terminology was very different in the time of Franklin. There was no public education nor a United States. There was no "what's in it for me" ideals. If you take your eye off the prize (freedom of a new nation) what business do you have? Franklin is one of my heroes in American history. Message to the Congress: Don't ever remove his image from the C note! Or else! Jackson is slated for removal from the $20. Guess who they want to put on it? I say leave history alone .

      And you realise that auction can take up to 50% commision, especially on high value items such as this as it needs a special auction and proper advertisement for it. Auction isn't the answer for everything, something like this could sit for years and years waiting for the right auction then you need the right sort of people and collectors there. You all make it sound like an auction is so great and easy when in fact it takes a hell of a long time, costs a bomb to get your stuff in it and then costs a hell of a lot more in commision fees / tax afterwords. You can take that 1 million profit and take at least 600k off it after all the fees and tax is paid. Not a lot of profit in the end for all the time and money it takes to get there.

The most valuable one is a silver version with the correct spelling of currency that also features the legend "EG FECIT" (not included on that counterfeit in the vid). EG FECIT stands for "Elisha Gallaudet made it". There are only 2 of that type in existence and the one in better shape is considered to be the most valuable of all types even though the lesser example currently holds the higher hammer price because it sold more recently than the top example. A silver CURENCY example also sold for 1.5 mill.

      Back then, words had more than one spelling--the rigid structure we have today only came about because of dictionaries, if I recall correctly. Regardless, correct spelling back then didn't matter as the only way to do so was to spell words in a way that they could be successfully conveyed. Therefore, as long as someone could look at the written word and derive the pronunciation from it, then as far as everyone was concerned the word was spelled correctly.

    The condition of that coin is what gives it away. In the rare case that someone finds one, like with a metal detector, it will be dark and corroded and heavily worn. The example here appears to be struck properly and doesn't even have any rim bumps or nicks.

    Rick may have screwed up, big time. Although extremely rare, there ARE silver strikes of this coin! And, they're worth 1.5+ million in worse condition than this one! One sold in 2015 for $1,527,500. Silver is about 1.5 times as heavy as pewter. He said 15-18 if it was pewter, but it weighed a little over 27 grams. Well, that happens to be exactly what you'd expect it to weigh if it were silver. He should have brought in an expert on this.
