[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 2143844, member: 66"]the old law made the manufacture or importation of unmarked copies for distribution in commerce illegal. The amended version also makes selling them illegal as well. It also makes it illegal to assist anyone in manufacturing, importing, distributing, or selling unmarked copies. (This is what puts ebay on the spot if they are shown the coins are fake and they don't stop the auctions, they are assisting the selling in violation of the HPA.) It also makes it illegal to copy the trademarks of the TPG's (basically outlaws fake slabs as well.) One thing that DIDN'T change is that it is still only applicable to umarked copies made AFTER Nov 29th 1973. I don't believe the OP coin was made before 11/29/73, I also do not believe it is silver. It may not be magnetic but I think it is a modern fake made within the past 15 years.[/QUOTE]
