Message:: [QUOTE="lincoln64, post: 17115, member: 1232"]I'v run across a couple of these on ebay. Fortunately the sellers were up front and said that they were imitations. I was just wondering what the story is on these. I'm pretty sure it's illegal to counterfeit these but apparently there is no reference to "copy" or "replica" on the coins. Were these made a long time ago, or are they a recent deal. Are they legally classified as counterfeit? Are they pretty accurate? If they are accurate, how can you tell the difference? <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=29464&item=3927363445&rd=1" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=29464&item=3927363445&rd=1" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=29464&item=3927363445&rd=1</a> <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=11978&item=3926954863&rd=1" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=11978&item=3926954863&rd=1" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=11978&item=3926954863&rd=1</a>[/QUOTE]
