moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 08/17/2015 1:18 pm Quite a pile of different copies. Although they have no real monetary value, there are folks who collect fake coins just to have examples for educational purposes. Report this Post to the Staff

Yes, such as myself! :P Legally I cannot purchase these but in a case like today, I had a buddy ship me several counterfeit/altered date coins in the mail for free. I am planning on making a youtube video to help ID these counterfeits. Report this Post to the Staff
