Well for about the last month, I've been sorting and identifying all my foreign coins I've accumulated over my life, and my travels.

Tonight I'm finally finishing up. I saved some oversized coins for last.

One of which is this 1867 Hong Kong trial strike coin. I was so excited reading about it. But then I came across this sentence that said this coin was often counterfeited. So I grabbed my handy little magnet and it leaped off the table to the magnet.


My first counterfeit coin! But wait, a few minutes later I find a 1927 China 1 Yuan 0.900 Silver, 39mm coin......and......now I've found my 2nd counterfeit coin.

Just thought I would share my "Error" (Counterfeit) finds with you!

Well I've learned something tonight, finish your research before getting excited!

The error here was on my part
