    And the same bad English translation too! At least some of our "favorite" Chinese sellers admit their "goods" are replicas, and sell them for a much more reasonable 10c each. Either way, it's a one big mess.

    I found this statement by the seller in his listing very telling:

    I'm becoming a big fan of items made in China with an English translation. As long as I don't have to figure out what it really means, it's sort of fun. I've bought things from there and never was able to figure out what the instructions said. Sure wonder why they don't misspell the words on the coins they make.

    This is obviously purposefully unclear and their lack of English is fake.

    They were spotted by a member of the Coin Forgery eBay group who regularly scans the Morgan listings.

    By law if you buy these or re-sell them in this country you can be arrested by the secret service unless it is stampped copy on the coin
