[QUOTE="rte, post: 4797752, member: 78199"]My Dad bought a fake Trade Dollar knowing that it was a fake. The seller wasnt sure SURE @ 20 cents on the dollar seller wasnt sure. He just wanted to see how it compares to the real thing. The morgans he bought out of Canada were supposed to be GTG. That deal took some time to resolve but he ended up with a few more examples. I was a our local coin club meeting and a guest from Mexico was there looking for information on some Spanish Cap and Ray dollars. He had 12 some loose and more in 2x2 cardboard holders. Asking $75ea. $50ea if real would be the closest I could get. He asks what do you mean IF REAL? I Asked if anyone had a good magnet, because I didn't bring mine. The magnet found 6 that stuck and 2 that wernt manipulated around the table with the magnet. I bought 4 and explained to the seller that silver does stick to a magnet.... Wasn't comfortable enough with the other 2 at that price and the seller sure didn't want to sell the magnetic ones for cheap. Seller said he bought them locally for $55ea about 30 years ago. He genuinely looked like he learned something that day.[/QUOTE]
