[QUOTE="PyrotekNX, post: 116697, member: 3918"]With the recent popularity of them, keep your eye out for modern counterfeits. Counterfeiting technology has advanced to the point where they can replicate the ring of silver without having silver in them and can even copy the metal flow lines of the mint lustre. As I stated above, stay away from China as well as other Eastern and Middle-Eastern dealers because 9/10 times or more they are selling counterfeits.
