<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DonnaML, post: 8125929, member: 110350&quot;]I ended up writing to the dealer last night, providing him with the links to the three examples at Forvm of fakes with the same flan cracks. He wrote back this morning,&nbsp; agreeing that &quot;[w]hen you see the coins together there can be no doubt that they are fake,&quot; and letting me know that he&#039;ll give me a full refund (including my additional postage costs) if I return the coin to him in the UK.&nbsp; He also told me that he had purchased the coin from a collector in Wales who had built up his collection over 30 years, so he thinks the fakes probably aren&#039;t that new.</p><p><br /></p><p>A question directed at anyone who&#039;s ever mailed anything like this from the US to the UK: can I just mail it to the UK after putting it in one of those cardboard sleeves to go inside the envelope, or do I have to deal with filling out customs forms, etc.? The dealer told me to write &quot;numismatic item returned to sender&quot; on the envelope, so he doesn&#039;t have to pay customs fees. I hope that isn&#039;t an invitation to theft.</p><p><br /></p><p>.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
