<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mlov43, post: 26518063, member: 16729&quot;]There are many aspects of the hobby with which I am not familiar.</p><p><br /></p><p>One is about what people do when they have a piece they KNOW is a counterfeit.&nbsp; Has anyone here ever submitted a known fake to a grading company?&nbsp; I mean, not to confirm the authenticity (which is a big part of the service that a TPG provides, of course), but to purposely get the coin back in a body bag with the tag marked &quot;Counterfeit?&quot;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Is this a thing at all?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I know it&#039;s considered a waste of money by many, but do some people in the hobby actually collect &quot;certified counterfeits,&quot; or more precisely, &quot;(fake) coins in body bags?&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Below is one somebody recently submitted and got back as a fake.&nbsp; The owner&#039;s not &quot;collecting&quot; fakes like I describe above, rather he IS trying to warn people about a certain group of sellers passing off these fakes of rare South Korean trial/pattern coins over at eBay.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1690290[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
