Mike, I had the same thing happen to me but my ex cleaned out the gold and left me with the silver and copper. She got the mine and I got the shaft!

I just pulled this off the PCGS site on Canada Maple Leaves. A very good video on fake cert/coin:

Wow guys! From someone totally new at collecting, its pretty unnerving that there are so many counterfeit coins (and holders) floating around out there.

This clown has sold more than US$800 in Canadian counterfeits in the past year... I fail to understand why he still exists on ebay...

I have to agree. ebay is far too lenient and allows repeat offenders of counterfeit items to keep on relisting. I listed WWII German militaria items (yes its against policy) and was quickly banned from listing for 30 days yet counterfeit sellers seem to be around forever.

I don't know if anyone has the ability to have a counterfeit removed on ebay, but if so, this Bank of Upper Canada token is a fake Chinese token:

Good Catch ainsivalavie

This seller has been reported several times for selling counterfeits.
Not only is the Bank Token counterfeit, everything he has listed is.
Been reported on the CCF counterfeit forum as repeat offender.
