"Among the tip-offs for investigators was the number of half dollars coming in from China for redemption outpaced the total the U.S. Mint has made, they say."
Priceless.

You think half dollars being a even meager portion of the coins would be being a tip off. It's funny that the average per car was $900. That would make me want to go to a junkyard for coins not a bank.

They've known about it since 2009, yet no one has been arrested? Talk about the wheels of justice being slow!

It's Nixon's fault, he's the one who acknowledged that mainland China existed.

What I'm about to say is in no way condoning racism, but aren't Chinese well known for counterfeits? Is it safe to say that it's cultural?

It's not racists.
I recall watching a television program with a Chinese businessman in China. His company only made counterfeit items. In the interview he admitted that they take great pride in producing counterfeit items. Also stating that they take great strides to make these items as close to the real thing as possible.

Welcome to my home state. :-)
Why do you think it's so easy to be a counterfeit collector here? :-)

They need to start prosecuting those in the US that knowingly try to defraud the government. Until someone is made an example, counterfeiters in the US will continue making MILLIONS.

It's things like this that make me steer far clear of anything to do with China. You never know if it's real.
