delaner Pillar of the Community United States 870 Posts	Posted 05/04/2010 3:58 pm Poll Question I was just thinking about it - I know VOLUMES could be and have been printed on the subject, but I was wondering if a "Common Counterfeit" thread could be started - not to point out coins "on the market" that people think are counterfeit, but rather for coins of which many known counterfeits have been made, and what to watch out for. To me, this is an interesting subject, and it seems like it might be a good thread with a lot of sub-threads as it gets populated? Thank you for hearing my suggestion! Poll Choices Yes, let's have a common counterfeit thread No, let's not Other - please post your ideas Report this Post to the Staff

It is also for us to be familiarized and be warned what these forgers have made, because they themselves are also studying to make their infamous skill improve to near perfection. If we have more pictures to discuss here, then the looks of counterfeits will be exposed on us thus lessen the chance of buying these fakes. Delaner - This is a milestone should your idea be made possible, hope it will soon Report this Post to the Staff

BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 05/05/2010 12:21 am I voted "No" not because I think it's a bad idea, but my thinking is along the lines of GraceOutcast. P.S. You could put every 19th century U.S. silver coin on the list and not even be half way done! ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff

Wow - that seems like a great reason to do it! So call the thread "Known Counterfeits" and mods remove threads from the ones that are incorrectly labeled...? If there are that many counterfeits in circulation, I'd sure like to know what to look for! Report this Post to the Staff
