Pertinax Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2133 Posts	Posted 12/26/2020 4:18 pm Is there a website or dealer that concentrates on contemporary counterfeits of UK coinage ? I'm aware of works on evasion coppers but not on later copper or silver coinage. Report this Post to the Staff

Use this experience in other areas of collecting of modern coins. Edited by sel_69l 12/26/2020 9:25 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Counterfeits have been made as long as there has been coinage and some are definitely better than others. Here is a random selection from my collection: Report this Post to the Staff
