I bought some old US coin replicas a while back and just found a second coin of one of the copies without the word ‘copy’ etched into it. I want to know if it is the real thing or just another copy/fake. I have included the known fake copy in my images for your reference in case it helps.

Nothing pictured is authentic. The Hobby Protection Act of 1973 requires the word "copy" but many replicas, both old and new, do not observe the law properly. Your pieces look cast and possibly plated, and nothing to get excited over.
