[QUOTE="imrich, post: 2058152, member: 22331"]I believe adjudication of an action pertaining to the sale of a "COPY" coin is very specific in the amended legislation. If you buy/sell an unmarked "COPY" of currency or a copyrighted collectible product you are in violation of the law. An exception is that where an authoritative organization stated the product was authentic by inference or guarantee (e.g. graded product of a TPG). The addendum legislation appears to close the "plausible deniability" loophole which seemingly everyone would like to use as an excuse for seemingly legitimately selling these "copies". It's understood, if one purchases an illegitimate copy, by definition they are aiding or assisting. If, as some state, an item is authenticated as a "copy" by a TPG, and someone tries to sell same, or theoretically even retains it without the COPY stamp, they are in violation of the very definitive law. A believed exception is a "copy" that was produced by/through an authoritative/legislative process. An owner of banned products aren't likely to be prosecuted for owning products deemed illegal by legislation generated after their individual personal acquisition, unless they violate the terms of the new law. An example of the aforementioned exception is that amongst my other collections is a very unique "firearms" accumulation. Many of the firearm components which were once legally available to the general public, are now illegal to own by the general public. I had a massive burglary in the past where I reported the guns stolen along with the respective serial numbers. Several of the less challenged items were returned, although currently illegal at the time of recovery. Others weren't returned, but numerous officers were "dismissed" in a future action where many firearms were found to have been removed from the "recovery gun vault". JMHO[/QUOTE]
