<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dcarr, post: 1001543, member: 4781&quot;]Does not apply here since I am taking <i>genuine</i> US Mint coins and modifying them (without fraudulent intentions or actions) - not really different than painting a Silver Eagle and selling it as a novelty.&nbsp;&nbsp; What the Chinese are doing, by making unmarked replicas out of something that wasn&#039;t legal-tender to start with, is a violation of this law.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>The Hobby Protection Act, which was enacted after this law, specifically allows numismatic replicas to be made. And that implies that &quot;molds or dies&quot; in the likeness of US coins are legal because that is the way replica coins are made (with molds or dies).</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Same reply as that for section 485 above.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
