Fake coins often feature an added mintmark, which is the most prevalent form of forgery. This technique involves adding a mintmark to a coin that originally did not have one.

The 1889 Philadelphia issue is particularly susceptible to this type of forgery. Due to its commonality, it is frequently targeted by those seeking to enhance the value of their coins by adding a mintmark.

Outright counterfeits, which are entirely fake coins, are also encountered by grading services like NGC. However, these counterfeits are generally not as convincing as coins with added mintmarks.
