As far as I'm aware this is an attempt at a replica of the coin.
Even put the denomination, country, and the Queen on it!

Putting a denomination and country on it makes it a counterfeit. Think I would avoid buying any of those.

It says 20 dollars on one side and 5 dollars on the other?

Little worse than a counterfeiter with no attention to detail.

And he has more....http://www.ebay.com/itm/8-x-SILVER-...em1c2e703224

And they are all only 1 gram...... What a shame. They've counterfeited the whole series. As well as other countries.

I think the " out " is calling it a round in stead of a coin. A round implies that it is a silver round not a legal tender coin. As a buyer you need to assume that everything that is called a round, is a copy.
Like all the Morgan and Peace " rounds " you see around all the time

No matter what, there's simply no point of buying it.

It looks like this is another attempt to fool the uninformed consumer that it's a 1 oz. round. There are quite a few feedback comments about the size of the items.


This seller even has negative/ neutral feed backs about the small size of ointments listed.

Maybe this seller is from middle earth and is a hobbit?

Illegal and the seller/manufacturer should be prosecuted.

Call the RCMP!

1$ for 1g of silver regardless of what is on it does not appeal to me.

$1 per gram is about the BV.

I would say people have to be very vigilant right now concerning raw silver. I wouldn't be surprised to see fakes of the 3/4 oz and 1.5 oz pop up.

I wonder if someone can simulate gold well enough to do $5/$10 1912-1914 fakes.
