JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21580 Posts	Posted 05/10/2026 11:31 am According to NGC, this is the 8th most counterfeited Chinese coin out there and this is one of them. Also the weight should be 26.9g, .3g heavier. A big difference for a silver coin. Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21580 Posts	Posted 05/10/2026 12:15 pm There are several markers indicating it is counterfeit but one of the easier ones to spot is the inconsistency in the size and spacing of the circle of beads, especially on the reverse. Too bad you don't have it in hand to give it a magnet test. Report this Post to the Staff
