Debrajc Pillar of the Community United States 4211 Posts	Posted 08/08/2015 08:16 am While searching for the latest 2 Disney Princess coins I need to catch my set up on ebay I found all of these listings openly selling and taking pre orders for clad "replica" coins marked .999 sterling. Truly sad that everywhere I look is more and more counterfeit coins. http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_fro..._sacat=11116 * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

shadz Pillar of the Community 1325 Posts	Posted 08/08/2015 11:18 am If it is a "coin" not a token, then I think less that Disney has any say than the Mint, since the Mint is the only one able to legally make coins, not Disney. If Disney makes coins now.. then they are just trying to illegally take that like everything else since Eisener got involved. Report this Post to the Staff
Duncan_Doenitz Valued Member United States 110 Posts	Posted 08/08/2015 2:17 pm The sale of these on ebay is just the tip of the iceberg if coins are being produced that say, on the coins, "1 oz 999 Fine Silver" (followed by a Disney copyright) as shown in auction scans while they are actually clad coins. The real problem is not the ebay sales, but is the manufacture of the items. So I contacted Disney. Good old Wikipedia tells us, "Niue is notorious among coin collectors for their frequent flooding of commemorative coins." They have a special currency set up for this, legal tender on the island but unlikely to be found there, while their business is done using New Zealand coinage. -Dunc Report this Post to the Staff

Debrajc Pillar of the Community United States 4211 Posts	Posted 08/08/2015 5:02 pm Yes...the genuine .999 silver coins are indeed. But these are Not Allowed counterfeits and openly sold as clad Disney fakes. Makes me sad just like all the other counterfeit everything coins on ebay from Not Allowed. Report this Post to the Staff
Henry M Smith Valued Member United States 337 Posts	Posted 12/18/2015 6:01 pm I have seen 6 at a time for one price of about C$26. I know it is too good to be true, so I do not go there. My problem is after these cheap coins come in they can be resold. Most come from China, as expected. Reporting them would be an endless task, they are so numerous. Report this Post to the Staff
