<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1458543, member: 26302"]My only point sir is there are, (at least in the states), certain series I believe you would be lucky to find one in a million coins to be real. I would say chinese silver coins, trade dollars, bust dollars, british trade dollars, pillar dollars, would all fall in this category. Those, even though I know how to authenticate them maybe better than the average collector, I won't even bother with any more since there are just millions upon millions of fakes. Also, some are now not magnetic, but still fake. They just aren't worth the effort any more to even bother with trying to find a real one IMO.</p><p><br /></p><p>I hope things are not that bad on your side of the pond, and never get to be that bad over there.
