<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 282891, member: 112&quot;]My feelings are that there <u>are</u> a lot more fakes out there than most people realize. And they&#039;re not all on ebay - alot of them are in collections or in dealer&#039;s shops. I would agree with you that 95% of the owners of these coins have no idea that they are fake. Also I think it is important to realize that when most people say a coin is a fake that it also includes altered coins as well as counterfeits.</p><p><br /></p><p>And if you listen to the reports of the professional graders at coin shows they are sometimes saying that up to 90% of the coins brought to them on the floor are fakes. No that doesn&#039;t apply to common dates and mints although they are often fakes - it primarily applies to the more scarce or expensive coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
