Message:: [QUOTE="dcarr, post: 2155351, member: 4781"]There are NUMEROUS cases where frauds were committed using US Mint coins in recent years. I've been producing over-strikes since 2010.   Find one case where a "disreputable" seller took advantage of someone using one of my coins. Earlier this year, one of my "1964-D" over-strike Peace Dollars was featured on the TV show "Pawn Stars". My name was mentioned several times and they clearly talked about it as a "Daniel Carr fantasy over-strike". So that is just one more example of information about them that has been in the media. But, like I said, the only way to stop coin (or other) fraud is to punish the person who is actually perpetrating the fraud. I don't know if you are familiar with Gallery Mint Museum (GMM). Several years ago they produced replicas of early US coins. They were clearly stamped "COPY" because they were copes of coins that were actually issued and not fantasy-date over-strikes. But that didn't stop someone from perpetrating a fraud by filling in the "COPY" stamp and artificially circulating the coin to make it appear genuine. By your logic, it seems Gallery Mint would be to blame for this.
