Fakes

I was researching the 5 dollar Barbados coin 1978 silver .800 and ran across this site.
I'm gonna hazard a guess these are all or mostly, knockoffs and fakes.
Sure seems like an awful lot of super shiny coins here... or am I just paranoid...?

Well, I don't know about the "super shiny" part, but an eBay seller located in China immediately sends up a red flag.

 

No pun intended?

 

you might get fakes???

 

I'm not sure if this seller is activily selling fakes, as 99% of his items are world coins/notes. I did find two Morgans, both PCGS slabbed. I assume they are genuine, but I'm no expert on phoney slabs:

Hate to be biased, but no way am I buying even a slabbed coin from China.

 

they may even sell you these
