[QUOTE="Kasia, post: 1279148, member: 31533"]I have a question, and it may seem really stupid.....but, here goes...... Supposing the Chinese counterfeiters are now using 90% silver blanks now (because the other metals are being detected as fake) and stamp out replicas of Morgans, sell them on eBay for somewhat big bucks, and on aliexpress.com for about 10X and offer free shipping, where the buyer can simply go turn the morgans in for 27X (with spot around 40) to a dealer as junk silver, what's stopping them? It gives an outlet for the Chinese entrepreneur to make money on the silver they have available, and to possibly give a buyer here or elsewhere the opportunity to sell that silver at a greater price than they paid. Or are the Chinese NOT using 90% silver blanks, or are they using inferior silver? So the question is: Are the blanks that Chinese replica Morgans using allowing people to sell them in the US not only as a real coin (to some people) but also at melt prices to make money that way?[/QUOTE]
