<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jerry Curtis, post: 2433704, member: 75907&quot;]Update: BEWARE!!! I just received my AWS Coin Scale today and decided to check the 1915 Austrian 100 Corona Gold Coin that a friend gave me a couple of days ago. This friend was a lawyer and his client had been taken in by these mid-east scammers and he had a couple of those coins and gave me one.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks to the accuracy of my new AWS Coin Scale, I validated information of the real 100 Corona Coin.&nbsp; It should contain .9803 troy oz. of gold and weigh in at 33.88 grams. This&nbsp; fake 100 Corona Coin probably has a fine coating of gold for it looks realistic enough; but it only weighs in at 22.7 grams or 6.18 grams underweight. </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; This fake 1915 100-Corona Coin was foisted upon the American coin market by some middle-east bad guys back in the 80’s from what I was told.&nbsp; Read this article and be on the alert should you ever have an opportunity to buy one of these coins...and if you already have one, you may want to check it out.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://coinsite.com/whats-the-value-of-a-1915-austria-100-corona-gold-coin/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coinsite.com/whats-the-value-of-a-1915-austria-100-corona-gold-coin/" rel="nofollow">http://coinsite.com/whats-the-value-of-a-1915-austria-100-corona-gold-coin/</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>The article further added that the Beirut Mint has a <b>state-of-the-art Milling Facility</b> and<b> “was famous for fakes of British Sovereigns, French and Swiss 20 Francs, the entire Corona series and United States gold coins as well as a great deal of other coins”</b>.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
