Watch the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LgjGJtcgfuA There are currently many fake gold and silver ingots and coins being sold out of China. Many of these items are made to a high quality and are hard to tell from the original for those not familiar with the original items. Below is a list of some of the current fake types available. Some currently faked silver ingots: 1 ounce Sunshine Mint 1 ounce Scotsdale 1 ounce Pan American American Prospector
One major drawback of silver is that it is specific density can be emulated with a mixture of Lead and another metal like zinc/brass etc.
How? If China isn't going after them and we don't have jurisdiction there, the only way to stop them is to educate collectors and people who are buying coins.
Why would anyone be surprised at this? It seems the Chinese figured out dishonest capitalism in a hurry.
