Brought to you by the same makers of the counterfeit Trade Dollars etc, now they are after the home market. These things have the same colouring and depth as the fakes they make of USA coins

What metal do they use?
Would the weight be off?
What is the value of a real one?
Wanna buy some coins?

Metal- various white metal alloys used.

Weight- Always underweight*

Value- Most of the copied coins are of genuine coins normally valued at $1-50


*Except for those struck on superb dies on actual silver planchets- those are very dangerous, and far different from your run-of-the-mill Chinese copies.

A die like this can perhaps make horribly high quality counterfeit coins? grin.gif
