Just about everyone I know of at least inspects the edge for damage. But it also would take away incentive for someone to try and sell it as...
That's the tough part about CC's. On the one hand they are copies, yes. On the other hand stamping them essentially is damaging a historically...
To be fair I don't think that is a valid comparison. Warhol took something mundane that our attention spans took for granted and basically not see...

Uneducated collectors yes, uneducated collectors that would spend several hundred dollars or more on a coin... not so often. Edit: would like to...
Even if they are not a specialist that can identify specifics, anyone that is willing to drop big bucks on a nice MS coin of a particular series...
You can get a solid silver copy for around $40-$50.
The short of it is - rich dude buys an island, island belongs to Britain. Dude makes his own coins in 1929, coins get mixed in as circulating...
Yep, the most common of them all. I gave it to the person that attributed it for me as a token of my appreciation, as I originally thought it to...
Very cool. I don't currently own a copy of that catalog, but always loved the contemporary stuff. Too bad it is under-appreciated by many. Even...
Nice one, cataloged in Davignon?
