<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MadMartigan, post: 1961650, member: 58925&quot;]I would agree that to say every Chinese coin is a fake is irresponsible but on the flip side of the coin I&#039;d be very wary about buying unslabbed Chinese coins.&nbsp; I want to add a Chinese fatman dollar to my crowns of the world set and was looking at some on ebay and I just don&#039;t think I could pull the trigger on ebay for these as I don&#039;t have them in hand to examine before buying.</p><p><br /></p><p>When I bought my trade dollar I spent an hour looking at it with detailed sheets printed out for what to look for and then left and came back a week later and spent another hour looking at it even though I trusted the dealer.&nbsp; You just can&#039;t do that with ebay.&nbsp; But if you got the coin in hand and do some research you can figure out fairly well if there fakes like the magnetic test.</p><p><br /></p><p>Yea there is a lot of fakes out there but all ungraded coins aren&#039;t fakes, its definitely a buyer beware market though.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
