I tend to agree to some extent. But I also agree with Numismat in that just about everything to say has already been said, and not a lot of new...
I am not robbing anyone's "legacy" by over-striking one of their designs (in the form of a worn coin) while keeping the same design but with the...
Would a legal counsel advise someone to make public claims of "counterfeiting" against a person or company when there is no legal ruling to...
Yes, VAM-29A it is. The VAM-13 listing didn't show any pictures of the obverse to compare to. That obverse is slightly different, apparently. The...
My Amero coin designs are copyrighted. The Chinese copies of them are a copyright infringement. I can report offending auctions to eBay's...
So you say that I am a "counterfeiter" ? What is the specific legal ruling that you base that on ?
Compare these two scenarios: 1) A manufacturer makes dies for a replica of a US coin. The dies are utilized to strike replicas of an original...
The 1884-O/O appears to be a VAM-13. 1896 #1 does appear to be a VAM-1B. 1904-O does appear to be a VAM-11. I don't see any VAMs of consequence...
I'm not sure what legal recourse there is, but there have already been various Chinese fakes of some of my original-design coins. I have been able...
I did already do a "1909-o". Here is a complete list of what fantasy over-strikes I have done so far:...
I have done some "proofs" - they are more difficult, but still possible. I may do a proof-like version of the "1916" over-strike Barber half...
For some strange reason I hadn't really thought of that. It would be possible. There are a lot of other coin types I'd like to do before something...
The statutes are conflicting. As I said previously, if the Title 18 statutes are the only consideration, then EVERY maker of EVERY replica US coin...
A "1965" Franklin over-strike could be a possibility, since I haven't done one before. But it would have to be 90% silver since the only genuine...
The Title 18 statutes do not prohibit the defacement of coins.
I'd like to accommodate your request, but once I close out an issue, I won't go back and issue more of them. At least once a week I get someone...
Yes, I do make a profit which pays the bills. Making a profit doesn't make it any less fun. Perhaps you are not aware of my "original work". So...
BUT, the HPA does NOT stipulate that numismatic replicas must have "COPY" on BOTH sides. I personally have NEVER seen a numismatic replica that...
Yes, people come up with all sorts of worthless items believing they are worth a lot. But it is one thing to believe that a coin you found or...
Let me ask you this: The HPA allows replicas of US coins to be manufactured and sold. How are those replica coins manufactured ?
