<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JBK, post: 38179, member: 1101&quot;]Hey, every modern counterfeit (I mean, current) sells for more than the real thing.&nbsp; I paid $30 for a fake Sacky from Ecuador, and some sold on ebay for lots more than that.&nbsp; Also, forgeries of UK pound coins routinely sell for at least double the face value.&nbsp; I did pay less than 2 pounds for a fake two pound coin, but shipping pushed it above face value.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have always thought it might be worth counterfeiting coins to sell as counterfeits.&nbsp; They are collected and have value in their own right (until the govt comes by to confiscate them).</p><p><br /></p><p>This opens a whole new subject, though.&nbsp; Older counterfeits like mentioned in the opening post – are they any more “legal” to own than a fake Sacky or pound coin?&nbsp; In reality, the answer is yes, but in a theoretical sense I am not so sure.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
