I'm sorry that the road has been laden with speed bumps and switchbacks.. My knowledge is pretty minimal.. and skills are few.. but if there is absolutely any way I can help.. feel free to let me know... Report this Post to the Staff

yingyang Pillar of the Community Canada 1823 Posts	Posted 12/20/2014 08:43 am Here a article from Toronto star on mike hard at work again. In the article I find it hard to believe the mint statement Counterfeit currency is "something everyone in this business has to manage on an ongoing basis," says Alex Reeves, of the Royal Canadian Mint. Counterfeiting is a criminal offence, and the mint regularly collaborates with domestic and international law enforcement, Reeves said. The mint authenticates potential counterfeit coins and provides information that helps speed up detection. http://www.thestar.com/news/gta/201...toronto.html Btw mike any class in Trenton in the near future. The coins are so obviously fake people just have to do a little homework... Edited by yingyang 12/20/2014 08:50 am Report this Post to the Staff
dialog_gvf Pillar of the Community Canada 1581 Posts	Posted 12/20/2014 10:40 pm According to CCN, fake bar and coin GML with a tungsten core and a 60 micron gold plating have shown up on Alibaba. Wholesale price $250 to $500 each, depending on quantity. Of course, since this is a threat to the RCM's business and not merely the collector market, the RCM is actually actively fighting this counterfeiting. Report this Post to the Staff
pocket change 50 Pillar of the Community Canada 1751 Posts	Posted 12/20/2014 11:58 pm Happy Belated Birthday Mike, you're a to me with your tireless efforts to rid the collecting community of counterfeits. A true Canadian coin collecting Superhero . I wish you your greatest success in the coming year. Let me know of any ways I can be of service to your coin crime fighting endeavours. Since ebay disbanded their coin watch group, in may 2014, I've stopped reporting coins. I look forward to the new information you will be posting. I really wish there was an area in the Candian sub forums, that contained all the threads on counterfeit coins - a one stop shop - if a person wanted to read up on fakes and counterfeits. My reason not all titles are easily searchable or contain key words in the title. It took me awhile to learn how to post a descriptive and concise title. It's not everyone, who will take the time to craft a searchable title. I'm also horrible at doing searches with my iPhone, which is all I use for the Internet. I feel it would also help those of us, who tend to only hangout in one sub form, thereby missing crucial information, which is posted in the other sub forums. Example I don't read any of the threads in the two middle Canuck sub forums. I'm not into varieties and I'm too new to contribute to grading, especially when viewing posts on my phone. All which 2015 Charlton catalog has your work on counterfeits.My 2015 Nclt one arrived yesterday and I have had a chance to go through it. I applaud your efforts in devoting time, to contribute your knowledge to a Charlton catalog!! Edited by pocket change 50 12/21/2014 12:13 am Report this Post to the Staff
