You see dealers at the major shows who don't man their tables or who spend all their time on a computer, with their back to their front cases,...
I don't like dealers who don't mark prices on their offerings. I will still buy from them if the deal makes sense, but it's my least favorite way...
Here is the 1796 counterfeit half dollar I promised to post. This piece made through a major auction in the early 1960s, if memory serves. PCGS...

If the counterfeiter made his fakes like the Chinese are doing it and like a legitimate mint, he or she has a hub with the Mercury Dime design in...
If it’s a counterfeit, which appears to be the case, it is worth scrap (less than melt). Please don’t give legitimacy to counterfeits that are...
