Listing will not be up long. But had to share. Coin bottom left has all the markers of a Chinese made counterfeit.

At least you can see something there. My computer won't open up any of those 4 little pics.

Some of the other 48's for sale on that site have the wonderful 'bogus grading company' as their preferred choice of graders.

Other than one seller having 4 key date coins all in very similar condition, what was the factor for determining these where fakes?

Only the bottom left coin was a fake. Made by The Big Tree Coin Factory in China. It showed every marker of the examples I have Including the poor doubled L (second) of dollar. This example was also on a 90% silver planchet so it showed none of the porosity of the white metal fakes.

Speaking of whacking moles Mike, are we going to have a chance to pull any more Walleye out of the water this summer or fall?

I searched for the company's website (the counterfeit company) and apparently the server no longer shows the website.
