I had some of my counterfeit "coins" imaged and wanted to share some with the CCF. These are housed in my 7070 Album that I pass around the room for "show and tell" instead of my real ones.

Are you saying ALL in the 7070 are fakers? If so, WOW! Wonderful collection. I like oddball sets, and have numerous fakes myself, but nowhere near a type set!

Shouldn't they say "copy" on them?

In a perfect, honest world...yes, they should have "COPY" stamped on them.

Wow! I never thought about that. Now that I have, I am tempted to put together a set-provided I can get them at next to nothing per coin-which is of course all that they are worth. I see that fakes of modern coins must be harder to find.
Rest in Peace

I've been happy to pay "real" prices on modern issues I've spotted at shows. If it were strictly a matter of rarity the lesser minor issue counterfeits would be much more valuable than the real thing.

I only mention they are fakes after I buy them so no one thinks I'm just trying to belittle a Coin to get a cheaper price. Which can be reprehensible.

Are they contemporary counterfeits or numismatic counterfeits?

I tend to think that contemporary counterfeits are a collectable subcategory in their own right.

They should. It would sell quite well.

Thanks for sharing!
