So approximately how long has there been fake Canadian coins such as these?

Are we talking many years here or is this a new trend?

...and are many countries making fakes?

me too!

We'll review your report carefully and take appropriate action. You don't need to contact us about your report again.

Your report is just one factor we review. To determine the action we take, we'll consider the type of violation you're reporting and how it may impact other ebay members. If the listing doesn't follow our guidelines, it may be removed. However, in some cases, the listing may stay on ebay, and we may contact the member to provide training. We also may place limits on the member's ability to buy or sell on ebay. To protect the privacy of all of our members, we're unable to share the action we take.
