I'd be extremely careful about buying anything from Hong Kong.
Assume it is ALL fake and go from there.

I bougth about 40 ox from the guy. Everything checked out. I couldn;t see anyhting wrong with them. I compared them to an Anacs graded eagle and everything looked the same. I ordered about 120 more. I think I'm getting a pretty good deal at 36.50 an ounce

They look legit from what I can see in the scans. Just to be sure. Can you do a high res scan or a possible picture of just 1?

I hate to think this way because there are legitimate collectors/dealers in that part of the world that are not out to sell counterfeits, but unfortunately that area has a bad reputation for it.

I would think that as long as the weight, diameter, and thickness are within tolerance, they would be legit. Based on the pics, they certainly look legit to me.

If those are fakes, they are really good ones.

I agree. Scanned photos can be very misleading.
