That could be a very rare coin. Take it to a coin dealer to have it appraised. Call them first and ask. Do not tell anyone you have it. Virtually EVERY double-headed coin that turns up in circulation is a fake. They're called magician's coins and sell for a few bucks at novelty shops. If your coin makes a hollow or dull sound when clinked on a table it's a magician's coin.

How do you tell if a 1804 silver dollar is fake?

At the risk of sounding a bit snarky, the best way to tell if it's fake is to hold it in your hand. If it looks like an 1804 silver dollar, it's fake. The 1804 dollar is one of the most famous rarities in all of American coinage. All known specimens have been accounted for and are in museums or private collections. There are oceans of counterfeit ones on the market.

Whose face is on a three dollar bill?

There have been hundreds of fake 3 dollar bills with different portraits- and to the best of my knowledge, one REAL series of $3 bills. The REAL bills were bank notes issued by one bank. The St. Nicholas Savings Bank of New York. Yep- the REAL 3 dollar bills had a portrait of Santa Claus- also known as St. Nicholas.


Who was on the 3 dollar bill?

The concept of a "three-dollar bill" is often used in a colloquial sense to refer to something that is fake or non-existent, as there has never been an official U.S. three-dollar bill. However, in popular culture, the term is sometimes humorously associated with various figures, including the fictional character of "George Washington" or as a way to reference something that doesn't hold value. In reality, the closest historical note is the Continental Congress's issuance of $3 notes during the Revolutionary War, but they were not widely circulated or recognized.
