Just wanted to let you all know that these are 100% Chinese fakes, and not good ones. Posting them because I heard there was a member here who had the power to get these things removed, so hopefully he's around. Someone less experienced is going to get had quickly if they stay up, because they appear to be excellent deals to the uninitiated. Of course, they're probably priced so reasonably because the sellers know they're fakes and are trying to sell them off before they get zapped. These are bad fakes, probably $2 from the no-no site, but there are much better ones on the market, so always be careful with raw key dates.

I have reported both of them to the appropriate CCF authority.

Thanks for shining the light and welcome!

By the way, is there a more dedicated place where these fakes should be posted for reporting when found? I think I heard someone mention such a forum in an older thread, but I can't find it.

How can you tell (other than common sense) that the one in the first action are fake? The pictures are poor and it appears they're of three different coins.

The first listing will be reported and removed Tuesday.
The second listing has already been removed.
