How Do You Feel About Coin Boxes?

I understand your reluctance to mention it, but it is probably good that it has been brought up. Something a potential buyer would want to verify without relying on the presence of a box and COA.

It probably is good that it was mentioned, my reluctance was more that it can create paranoia for those products. Scams certainly do exist as do fakes, but theyre not as prevalent as these conversations often make them seem. I'm sure anyone trying to run scams like that has already thought of anything that we could mention here.




I completely agree dealers have a role to play in the integrity of the hobby and helping to protect new buyers. However, at some point the buyers do need to take responsibility for what theyre going to be purchasing. If someones making money passing bullion ASEs off as proofs its only because the buyers didnt bother to do even the most basic of research for an unfamiliar product.

Im not one of those people that thinks people should have to spend years or months researching before making any products. But there is a point where a scam gets so simple/crude that no one else can prevent them from getting duped if they wont even look at other listings or do a simple product google search.
