<p>[QUOTE=&quot;1865King, post: 5258519, member: 103207&quot;]I knew those were fake as soon as I saw them.&nbsp;&nbsp; A quick scan on the obverse and reverse and I was done.&nbsp; I bought a fake seated dollar about 20 years ago at a small coin show.&nbsp; I knew it was a fake and it was labeled as a fake.&nbsp; I think I paid $30.00 for it.&nbsp; It was dated 1847.&nbsp;&nbsp; It looked good but, wasn&#039;t the correct diameter and felt light.&nbsp;&nbsp; This was when these thing were first showing up in the USA.&nbsp;&nbsp; As of right now if you go on Facebook there are a number of operations selling fake Morgan dollars and fake silver eagles.&nbsp; What is also fake are the reviews they post on their site.&nbsp; They&#039;re selling silver eagles and Morgan dollars for $9.95.&nbsp;&nbsp; That price is the first and biggest red flag.&nbsp;&nbsp; Even a junk Morgan dollar will cost you about $19.00 and a silver eagle will cost you around $30.00.&nbsp;&nbsp; Those prices mean something.&nbsp;&nbsp; If silver is running around $25.00 per once there aren&#039;t any dealers that will sell you one for $9.95 when he could sell them at melt and get around $25.00 for them.&nbsp;&nbsp; Watch out for fake slabs and I&#039;ve even seen fake CAC stickers.&nbsp;&nbsp; Buying raw or even slabbed coins on EBAY from someone you never heard of at a really low price should be an instant warning.&nbsp; DON&#039;T BUY IT!!!&nbsp;&nbsp; However, there are some well know dealers that sell on EBAY so don&#039;t assume every person on EBAY is trying to scam you but, it goes back to the old saying of Buyer be Ware.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>There&#039;s even a YouTube video showing how the Chinese are making these.&nbsp;&nbsp; They will make you any coin you want.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
