<p>[QUOTE="jgenn, post: 4501538, member: 78525"]Are these specs from your example? Did you pay a fair price for it? The term counterfeit usually refers to a coin that tried to circulate when the genuine did. Otherwise some of us prefer to call such issues a forgery or even a "numismatic forgery" since the intention is to fool coin collectors. Yes this type is forged but I don't know enough about this type to do more than basic forgery detection.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
