Post Your Counterfeit Coins Here (Educational Thread)

This was in a older type set folder, looked good at a distance.

weight .07 Grams, non silver. Cast copy? I don't know if it is a contemporary or modern fake.

First Fake 3 Cent Silver I have ever seen in hand.

That would trick me too if I didn't look too hard. Looks like a cast fake.

Super Glue is probably the strongest.
It is also probably the most sensitive to be dissolved in acetone.

1858 Canadian Penny. Seller states colour looks more realistic in person. These were being pumped out of China for years without the COPY logo. These are from a common website which I emailed the seller and asked if I ordered one would it come with COPY and seller stated that the word COPY has to be stamped on photographs but wont be on the actual coin. Yikes.



EDIT: added "seller states colour looks more realistic in person" from "Looks more realistic in person" - I don't condone nor support sales of counterfeits as I was a victim of fake bullion.
