Goddammit, I just realized the counterfeit I'm currently hoping to unload is a prior completion and thus not worth posting for fifteen points.
Hey, anybody want to buy a prior completion?
I really like this task, and I think the title may've had something to do with the relative lack of completions. Ergo, "Rasputin's Penis" is dead, long live "Frank Frink's Colt .45"! Should alliteration and Philip K. Dick references fail this time around, next in line is "The James Ossuary"
does it have to be a specific artifact or just anything in general? and how realistic does it need to be?
I used to have the perfect thing for this.
I kept my green flock (a powder you glue to the bases of wargames minis to look like wee ickle grass) in an old glass coffee jar labelled " Genuine Powdered Dragon Spleen."
I "antiqued" a label for it using teabags.

This was a fun task. If I did it again, I would have made some minor tweaks to the construction, but I'm still pleased with how it turned out, especially since I've never made a book before. The journal details the lost voyage of famed explorer, (an...
I was wandering the lowlands across the street from my house when I stumbled upon an ancient city. Once I began to excavate the scene I discovered signs of an ancient religions whose secrets are yet to be revealed.
When I saw the title, i thought, what the heck! Couldn't think of any artifacts so I decided on a mumified/marbalfied Rasputin's genitals. Here's the result =D After complaints from Rasputin's fans that my creation should be shamed because it...
When I first saw this task I could not think of an artifact to make but then I realized that I was thinking too hard and decided on something rather simple. A prehistoric shank. As you can see I gathered up a pen, an arrowhead, some thread, and a sc...
Well here we go- counterfeit itms with counterfeit certificates to boot!
To being with, I'd like to note that in the process of this task I managed to get cat puke on a 1912 collection of English poetry. Score. Unfortunately I was too mortified at my own negligence to get a picture of that part. Having completed the idiot...
"Six Persimmons" by Mu Qi is a good example of the pinnacle of Chan (known in Japanese as Zen) philosophy applied to Asian painting. This was during the Song Dynasty. Totally genuine. I swear. I got it from a friend of a friend, who told me it fell...

Its fake enough for me
It should be noted that only *one* of Rasputin's alleged penises is known to be counterfeit (it's a sea cucumber). The other one might be the genuine article, for all we know.
