<p>[QUOTE="Alegandron, post: 2143923, member: 51347"]Curious: I have been involved in manufacturing for 35+ years. We manufactured all over the globe, and even effectively manufactured many products cheaper than the Chinese (virtual "lights-out" processes). There was a period of time when we were able to work with Metal Injection Molding and really bang out high-quality, lower cost metal parts/product. When you speak of "Cast Metal" counterfeits, are you including this process? My concern is how well technology has evolved since the 80's/90's when this process was first starting up. Because, even at that time, very tight tolerances were attained, and excellent quality product came out of the molds... THAT is a technology China as well as anyone in the world possesses. Does anyone know if this has ever been encountered in fake coins?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
