"Pillar Dollars"

I'd simply remark that while there are certainly even more deceptive forgeries out there, these current "run of the mill" Chinese ones are still far more competently executed than many prior iterations, and while not good enough to fool the advanced collector, are nevertheless sufficiently convincing to take in the less numismatically sophisticated buyer, especially in the secondary mrketplace where their origin will not be obvious.

Here is a more dangerous one, a bit better (but egain, there are even better ones) : http://www.ebay.fr/itm/SPAIN-MEXICO...321820495977

Overall dull look of the coin's surface, most denticles missing, soft design (not sharp), no distortion from the rim pattern visible, possible casting bubbles (a bigger picture would be needed to confirm) and the fact that I'm used to see those :D

I agree, these coins look off somehow, like a lot of the current Chinese counterfeits. Details are all there but not sharp looking, all the coins have the same washed out look. Can't say for sure off a photo, especially an ebay photo, but I would pass on all of these.
