DrZabb New Member Canada 39 Posts	Posted 04/25/2014 4:41 pm I think I found fake? 2 dollars coin today. Is it worth anything? Since I have not much interest in modern coins, should I keep it? Thanks Edited by DrZabb 04/25/2014 10:33 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Altaira Pillar of the Community Canada 2519 Posts	Posted 04/25/2014 4:51 pm Unfortunately it's illegal to own counterfeits in Canada. There's a member here called SPP-Ottawa who looks at these, you can try contacting him. Report this Post to the Staff
chequer Pillar of the Community Canada 4227 Posts	Posted 04/25/2014 6:21 pm If it is a fake, you're not allowed to own it. We'd love to know why you think it's counterfeit and see some photos. There are some great counterfeit experts on this forum. Report this Post to the Staff

SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10458 Posts	Posted 04/25/2014 8:36 pm I do accept them. I test them with the XRF at work, and then send them to the RCMP lab here in Ottawa. Eventually, when I have a good statistical dataset (at least 28 samples or more), I anticipate writing a scientific paper with the RCMP lab specialist. Ask the moderators here to allow you to send me a personal message.

Amwyll Rwden Valued Member Germany 85 Posts	Posted 05/05/2014 11:06 am On the topic of owning counterfeits, I once had to turn in an early loonie fake (with the detached bill), but now that I don't live in Canada, could I own one, or is simply owning a Can fake illegal?
