<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MentalVirus, post: 1267227, member: 33177&quot;]I don&#039;t have much history with coin collecting so I don&#039;t know anything about the history of counterfeit coins.&nbsp; Would you guys say that this coin (or both coins) are fairly new fakes?&nbsp; Or were fakes being made for a long time already?&nbsp; Also, what are the signs that it is a Chinese fake as apposed to any other fakes?&nbsp; I&#039;m not sure how much of a &#039;collector&#039; this guy was because as far as I know he doesn&#039;t have any Whitman folders/sets that he was working on.&nbsp; I asked his son about it because that is why I got into cents, have a 3 full sets of folders, one for myself and one for each of my nephews.&nbsp; I normally get a couple boxes a week from the bank to roll hunt and fill in the sets.&nbsp; I&#039;ll post a pictures of the &#039;collection&#039; later, going to eat and watch a movie with my wife now!&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>And it&#039;s a little obnoxious if you two are suggesting that I am making &quot;Chinese&quot; counterfeit coins myself.&nbsp; I don&#039;t think I would be online posting macro pictures of them saying I think they are fake and looking for input if I were making them myself, I would probably just be selling them on ebay!&nbsp; I guess they wouldn&#039;t be &quot;Chinese&quot; then anyway lol.&nbsp; I also don&#039;t have a foundry in our apartment!&nbsp; I&#039;ll try to talk to his son and see if he knows any more details or if they have found any other &#039;collections&#039; in his stuff but it didn&#039;t sound like he was some serious coin collector.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
