<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1095040, member: 26302&quot;]With the proliferation of Chinese fakes, I would say we simply do not know. The two coins you list have not historically had large amounts of fakes simply since they were not very valuable. however, I have seen fakes of even more common coins. Older fakes of common coins are usually easy to tell by the method Doug speaks of. Modern Chinese fakes are much harder, but I have not SPECIFICALLY heard of these coins coming from China. Not yet anyway. When I was there I saw lots of coins that would retail for $300-$700 normally, along with the common, low end fakes like trade dollars made from base metal.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
