<p>[QUOTE=&quot;steverr1, post: 1345891, member: 34880&quot;]Pumkinpie you probably are correct. Thing is, and everyday I am amazed, that no one seems to be putting/writing legislation that would completely ban reproductions-copies or what ever to stop this. The figures I see concerning the amount of money involved each day entering the U.S. that is counterfeit is ..well...unbeliveable. Who knows how many other countries are doing the same. I will admit that after all these years I could be taken by any number of their methods. While I study as much as I can I still worry and question almost evey coin I see. I recently heard of an investment group getting taken for a million dollars in a gold purchase. If their experts couldn&#039;t tell the gold was fake I have NO chance! Its just a matter of time I suppose. Actually my biggest fear is passing on through a sale some item I was too dumb to catch. Say a fake slab or something. Even in bullion, say a fake maple leaf, you have to now know what veins belong where and so forth.&nbsp; Its almost too much for a small dealer to keep up with.</p><p>So, maybe, just maybe someday soon a politician will have enough clout to get something passed. Even if a law promising death came about today the counterfeit population is so large it would take several life times to sort it through. Can&#039;t imagine years from now what delayed laws would add.</p><p>On a good note the hobby is still worth all the schooling, its just that we need some stronger legal help.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
