<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gxseries, post: 2035784, member: 4373&quot;]Ok this is disappointing - I found a coin in my collection and after looking closely at it, there are some minor differences to genuine examples. While it passes the weight test as well as most other details, this is something that came out of the blue. This is a particular coin that is not known for counterfeit but it was only a matter of time. It&#039;s disappointing that I only looked at it closely after one year and it was just one detail that bothered me. It&#039;s only fortunate that I didn&#039;t immediately sell my lower grade coins so that I could compare minor details side by side. </p><p><br /></p><p>The suspect coin is as follow - 1906 20 chon</p><p><br /></p><p>Genuine example</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://omnicoin.com/coins/1021512.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Counterfeit</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://omnicoin.com/coins/1019086.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Most of the details are actually surprisingly close to details including the finer details of the dragon&#039;s claws and the micro lines off the dragon&#039;s head. There&#039;s one major feature that the counterfeiter screwed up - the spiral in the ball was unfortunately was not right. </p><p><br /></p><p>While it&#039;s unfortunate that I got stung and did not pay attention to it, I guess this is one of those life learning lessons. This is the reason why I am sharing my experience. </p><p><br /></p><p>Will be posting some other details about this seller and other related sellers. You may be surprised.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
