<p>[QUOTE=&quot;LostDutchman, post: 607097, member: 16994&quot;]To back up what Doug is saying about it being a problem for a long time I present one of my rarest and favorite pieces of reference. I wouldn&#039;t sell this book for all the tea in China. </p><p><br /></p><p>This is the Diffenbacher Counterfiet Gold Coin guide. This was published in 1963 and has almost 500 pages. It covers world and United States counterfiet gold coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>I know silver coins have become more common to counterfiet lately but this just goes to show that this was such a problem in the 60&#039;s that this reference was published... Imagine how many of these are sitting in collections (or dealer cases) as original pieces with patina and toning.&nbsp; Maybe even in slabs? </p><p><br /></p><p><u><img src="http://i42.tinypic.com/b5h7gy.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></u></p><p><img src="http://i41.tinypic.com/jayumo.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i41.tinypic.com/4rcf0y.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
