<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 965624, member: 26302"]Very true. The casts ones makes you feel nostalgic for the good old days when forgeries were easy to spot. Chinese coins now can be die struck, with proper metal composition, and for even more they will melt down correct coins so that even metal studies cannot disprove authenticity. The new ones can be scary, but the looks of these do not look like those super fakes out there now.</p><p><br /></p><p>Btw, I just remembered I just saw 2 cc Trade dollars that looked just like these at the Hmong market in St Paul 2 weeks ago. It wasn't Craigslist MN by any chance? They had CC Morgans, Trade Dollars, and 1804 silver dollars. It was a real jackpot find!! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>

The new ones can be scary, but the looks of these do not look like those super fakes out there now. Btw, I just remembered I just saw 2 cc Trade dollars that looked just like these at the Hmong market in St Paul 2 weeks ago. It wasn't Craigslist MN by any chance? They had CC Morgans, Trade Dollars, and 1804 silver dollars. It was a real jackpot find!! :)[/QUOTE]
