I wonder how these coins are in best conditions, and only the rares ones:

I am very suspicious that at least the Sadagora coin is a fake...

Very smart. In every of those auctions a fake is paired with a common ugly original. I hope no one will be fooled by it. All rare coins being sold are fake.

Indeed it's quite smart. You can't just say that the lot is a counterfeit since one of them is genuine and the other is just not.

Since when have these fake coppers been made?
