<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ffrickey, post: 1240787, member: 20613&quot;]The post &quot;I was emailed by a counterfeiter&quot; was a real wakeup call.&nbsp; I don&#039;t much like the idea of slabbing coins, after all I want to hold them and make my own pix.&nbsp; And if counterfeiters can counterfeit slabs too, then what&#039;s the point.&nbsp; I looked through the FAQ section but didn&#039;t find anything specifically about recognizing counterfeits.&nbsp; Seems to me this would be a valuable forum for cointalk to open up.&nbsp; Who can recommend literature on this subject?&nbsp; Naturally I&#039;d like one comprehensive book that tells me everything I need to know, but I suppose that book doesn&#039;t exist.&nbsp; I also suppose that no book can substitute for actually holding a real coin and its counterfeit in your hands and comparing them, but that&#039;ll be hard except perhaps at a special counterfeit school.&nbsp; Still, any references that exist on this subject would be welcome, and I think a forum where members can warn of the latest perfidious scams would also be a good idea.&nbsp; Also, maybe a source of guaranteed good-quality counterfeit coins at a reasonable price would be useful.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
