[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 2896416, member: 66"]Well we had a womens team playing against them, and soccer isn't a major sport in the US. Since they are selling them in China it is perfectly legal for them (Oh and although they may list them as fake they are usually not marked when they arrive here) But for the person here importing them, it is NOT legal if they are not marked COPY in compliance with the Hobby Protection Act. Sounds about right for a gold one so it must be plated tungsten. Just because it was purchased over the counter locally does not mean the counterfeiters are "home grown". They could still be coming from overseas. Exactly how would ultrasound work? It works for larger bars that have been drilled and filled because the sound waves reflect from the boundaries of the filled areas, but a plated solid tungsten bar would just show as a solid bar just as a gold bar would. The plating would be too thin to show.[/QUOTE]
