[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 8331979, member: 19250"]We had a local coin shop here for over 60 years. It has closed about 3 years ago. Sonny had a tray of contemporary counterfeit coins, with a red ink sign on an index card " not for sale" Not that I was interested in purchasing, but asked Sonny why they aren't for sale. He said Paddy dealers sell these openly at shows no problem. But....he said under roof here its a different story...as I am a legitimate business and if I sold these to you or anyone else he said I could end up in jail. Im not risking the chance of someone coming in ....buying one or two and then have a federal badge in my face. He said at a show the chances of that happening are slim to none. But at a store front business you're playing with fire. If I accept money for that coin I am breaking federal law, as well state law. And I'm not going to risk my business on a $10 sale.[/QUOTE]
