This is the newest counterfeit to hit the market.
On ebay right now, there are only two listed and
they are both fake. (Both have been reported.)

Easy to tell the difference.
On the counterfeit, the dots are larger and the comma is higher.
Just another reason to buy from a reputable dealer as opposed to getting a "deal" on ebay.

Good stuff. Their ISO designation makes them "trustworthy" so many people in the know would very much accept this bar without hesitation. They are 45 minutes from me. Thing is, for the real company, they are famous for being crooks, which is probably why they changed their name from Imperial to Umicore. I can't prove this, as it is anecdotal, but other people I know say they use their services. They do have good products, so I can attest to that at least. Refineries will never screw you on the gold count that you purchase, but on the amount of gold you send in to refine and also on the money with their "glitchy" money counting machines. I'll be sure to look out for these, however I've never seen Umicore give us bars, only 24K grain.
