<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 3308707, member: 112&quot;]I see nothing on this coin to make me think it might be a fake. </p><p><br /></p><p>But here&#039;s how I look at coins like these. First of all they have little to no value to speak of. Yeah, some people who really like the shipwreck genre pay up for them, but in reality they are only doing that because of their own personal preferences - not because the value is justified. </p><p><br /></p><p>Secondly, you can do every test there is and the results will still not be proof that the coin is genuine. This is because many of the counterfeiters use silver of the correct fineness, so even the fakes will still test as being genuine with acid tests, specific gravity, weight, dimensions, etc etc. Point being, even if you do all the test you still don&#039;t <b>know</b> any more than you did before doing them.</p><p><br /></p><p>Once you know that much you have to ask yourself - why bother ? If you like the coin, fine, keep it. If you don&#039;t then give it away, sell it, trade it. But if you do you should tell others what I have said above.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
