Yes, this is a common fake purchased off of AliExpress.com out of, you got it, China. I know because that is the identical image. I have been doing a lot of research on fakes so I don't get burned but it's getting pretty scary out there. AliExpress is the most popular site where fakes are coming from. Check it out for your self and take a good look at these fakes, some a really good. I'ts best to learn about these and possibly buy a few so you can determent a fake from the real deal. Some words of advice, never buy off of Ebay unless it is a reputable seller like APMEX or Provident Metals. They offer a buy back so it's like a free life insurance policy with every purchase. Good luck

 

From the auction linked to by wcoins:

"Perfect for the holiday season with all the beauty of a gold bar but none of the price."

How is a fake bar "perfect for the holiday season"?

 

The holiday season is when it's more likely for you to get buzzed and not notice the fake gold
