<p>[QUOTE="CoinCorgi, post: 8332565, member: 88934"]In this sense, DC has intent to deceive a coin collector (not the gubmint, not the general public). Perhaps a naive one, or one without an encyclopedic memory of all series, or one who doesn't do their due diligence in researching a coin before buying (who does that <i>every </i>time?). Certainly a re-seller of these objects is not as diligently warning people with the same disclaimer that DC uses - <i>“Do not attempt to use these as legal tender. This product is NOT endorsed or approved by the US Mint, US Treasury, or US Government.” </i>And furthermore, that disclaimer makes no mention that the date/mintmark are fantasy pieces.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
