He also lurks about from time to time from what I understand. :-) His work always provokes strong, but mixed reactions.
(I'm a fan, but then again I collect replicas, counterfeits and altered coins. :-) )

I can see how some of them look really nice but it just seems like to much of a gamble if there would be a market for them in the future. However if just for collecting that would be good.

I think the whole DC thing has really gotten out of hand about minting "coins that should not exist" with the correct designs on the correct metal composition. I think it is right up there with the counterfeiters but he is doing it through a loophole that makes it kind of legal. I have no qualm with DC himself as I have talked to him many times on this forum when he was active but that was way before he started all this stuff he is pumping out now. But I have expressed my feelings about his business plan before and really don't want to stay up all night because I get all worked up again over it

brian - that was my original thought in starting this thread that these are real coins but fake = counterfeit

I've been to the local flea market a few times. One of the dealers there sells some his coins as "replicas using the same dies." I know better than to buy these, and I hold my tongue for various reasons, but I wonder now if those are Daniel Carr made coins that that dealer is selling.

Don't know who DC is, but I see fakes. Very Chinese like.

I think DC spends a lot of time in the gray area just shy of stepping over the line of breaking ebay's rules. I have no idea why anyone would spend that much for the equivalent of a silver round that is only 90% as opposed to bullion-quality. Just my opinion.
