<p>[QUOTE="stainless, post: 712811, member: 11757"]From what I have read, it looks as if most of the coins are all together, so they shouldn't hit the market.Some individual ones being sold on ebay I have seen that are deemed part of this hoard are really crappy looking. IMO, they didn't to a good job with the edges of some of these fakes. Others are really good and would fool me, but I am not interested in them, so I wouldn't buy them anyways, even at $7 a coin, but, like I said, they would fool me, until I learn how to match dies, which is what I am doing right now. Others, the Patina is really either awful or just unfavorable. I understand you can't deem them as fake because of repatination, but why would you buy any coin - real or fake - with repatination?</p><p> </p><p>These will fool most people, if they are to be sold individualy, but now that we have examples and know the dies, this isn't anything to worry about much.
