<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 3611730, member: 66&quot;]If the coins are labeled COPY in the size and depth specified in the Hobby Protection Act then they are perfectly legal.&nbsp; If they are unmaked and made before 1973 they are perfectly legal.</p><p><br /></p><p>The problem is these unmarked fakes are made in China where US laws do not apply.&nbsp; They can legally make them and can legally ship them to the US.&nbsp; It is ILLEGAL for the buyers here to import them into the country or to resell them.&nbsp; So if hte manufacturer in China is listing them on ebay, it is the buyer here that is breaking the law, not the manufacturer.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also under the HPA aiding or facillitatingin the sale of such unmarked fakes is illegal, which means that Ebay is also in violation of the law if they are informed that they are fake and they continue to allow the sale to run.&nbsp; The problem becomes who is going to file charges against ebay and foot the bill for carrying out the court case against them?&nbsp; Would probably run into the millions.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
